Hints to make the most of your
RCI membership:
-
If you own a floating week, make sure to contact
Palm Beach Shores Resort early in the year to reserve your week
or deposit it with RCI. If you wait until the year end, there
may not be any weeks available. By reserving or depositing your
week early on, you maximize your trading power for the week you
deposit. This enhances the ability to get the week you desire.
If you choose to bank your floating week, you must do so by
December 1st.
-
Start your exchange request as early as
possible, particularly if you choose to travel in high demand
season or high demand areas. With your trading power maximized
when requesting exchange destination early, you increase your
probability of having your request fulfilled. All maintenance
fees and taxes must be paid prior to depositing your week for
the year your want to deposit.
-
If you have travel time flexibility (off season
or last minute), check out RCI’s Vacation Escapes. This program
allows you to travel on an exchange to areas where there is an
excess inventory without exchanging the week you own. It’s a
great way to get an extra vacation. Please review your latest
Endless Vacation magazine from RCI or check the website (www.rci.com)
for an updated list of destinations and specials available.
