Re: Marriott Going to Point Syst (by Amit P.):
Here's why marriott owners are furious: Marriott has removed practically all the inventory from Interval Internation, forcing us to switch to Destination point system. I cant exchange by 1 bedroom Maui Ocean Club for a studio at any of the Marriott in Palm Desert in any month in Summer. The inventory went down from several 100s to less than 5 in last 2 days. When you call their rep, their give the standard line "Oh, the owners decided to not deposit this week". Like, the marriott owner suddenly decided that they do want to start spending their summer in 105F weather!
BTW, the point system does have its merit. I just joined it. It's just that Marriottt has been very dishonest and sneaky with their loyal base. And that a big shame, considering how much my family love Marriott Vacations.
