Are they any disadvantages to RCI Points?
If you have been reading this blog, you have certainly seen many posts extolling the virtues of RCI Points.
Overall, RCI Points do have considerable advantages compared to the traditional one-week timeshare.
There is one concept that must be understood, however: RCI Points are similar to any floating week in that you must plan ahead and reserve ahead if you want to get into a high demand location and time of year.
For those who cannot plan ahead, a fixed week, fixed unit timeshare has an advantage in that you know that the timeshare is your home for that particular week and that particular unit.
But there is still the disadvantage of knowing you are only going to get that one week out of your annual maintenance fee. With RCI points, the majority of owners manipulate their points where they can get more than one week, such as by using INSTANT EXCHANGE, (45 days or less ahead of travel date), which only takes a small number of points, 9,000 points, to stay in any size unit in any RCI Resort in the world.
