Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Mark S.):

While not directly related to your concern regarding converting your week to points prior to securing a reservation, I confirmed, through discussions with Marriott, that if you need to “borrow” points from a future use year to secure a reservation that the points are not transferred into the use year of your desired reservation, which is an irrevocable transfer, while you are on a “wait list”. Also, I was able to confirm with II that for exchanges of 7 days the Destinations points program and II can draw from the same inventory for a Marriott week exchange. However, I’m not sure if Marriott lets II draw from unsold unit weeks. I believe Marriott uses them to fulfill Destination points requests.
