i guess link reservations then make sure it is the exact same island garden studio, Ocean 1 bed etc

Right

No-pretty sure it’s locked because they are telling me I have to use those points before my OTUP. It lines up with what MS told me.

None of my 7 month trips are locked. So, it doesn’t make sense that they locked it after you purchased the points.

I guess we will see what happens when I do.

That’s because you didn’t try and rebook the same Res. I did that in order to try and swap in the OTUP

Well, it’s never been that way so I guess we shall see tomorrow.

I just am surprised that it wasn’t locked and then after you purchased it changed.

Tried it again and it’s still showing the lock. But I then tried modifying (really just rebooking the same days) on a different Res and it seemed to allow me to use my OTUP. So now I’m really confused.

Just chat members services and have them do it. I had a reservation that was definitely made within 7 months where the contracts were locked on it recently and they had to unlock it and move around points for me. It wasn't OTUP, but it works the same. I wanted to make sure that it used all my banked points first so I could bank any extras if I don't go on another trip this year.

My guess is that the lock was there for some other reason.

As I said, if I modify a home resort booking at 7 months vs just booking a new non home resort booking, it always stays locked.

BC isn’t my Home resort, so it was definitely under 7 months. But I did modify it back as ways by dropping a few days. I’ll be calling tomorrow to see if MS has an answer and also to try and use the OTUP on my Aulani stay, since that has availability where I could book a night in the middle of my stay and then drop the doubled up night.

You should be able to have MS swap out the points if it wasn’t made during home resort booking period.
