Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Den):

I think many of us may over analyze this program. The real tests, I believe, are (1) whether we can we get the vacation weeks/days we want; and, (2) whether we are able to do this at a reasonable cost for these "high end" properties. Cost, of course, is either destination points, trades thru Interval, or use of an owned week. I may be missing something but I suspect these are the issues.

Out of fairness to Marriott, we have been successful in getting the vacation days/weeks we wanted at some great properties. This has, however, required that we learn how to use the entire program and plan way ahead. And, yes, we're heavily invested in weeks, enrolled in Destinations, bought Destination Points, etc.

I really don't think the Destinations program has hurt our existing participations; and, in fact, has added some options.
