Re: Marriott's Vac Club Reservation System - prejudiced against owners (by David J.):
It has been very difficult to make reservations. We would literally be on the computer at the exact time reservations opened the year before, 8am on the dot - and all the spots are gone for the dates we want during peak week. These are also platinum.
So what I don't understand here - is Marriott taking some of the inventory for themselves for these weeks? Is that why there is so little availability? I just always assumed it was because all the timeshare owners are trying to book the same peak week, and that's why it is gone in seconds. How can inventory be made for non-owners? How does that make sense? I'm close to resorting to automated software for reservations or selling the timeshares. That seems to be the only two options at this point.
