How likely is to get an RCI week in Prague?

I am trying to trade my pretty strong week for a week in Prague in September (the only RCI property there). I am running an ongoing search in RCI for over a month now with no results.

What is the likelihood of getting any results for Prague?
I guess this depends on how desirable this location is and how many owners there are willing to exchange.
Anybody succeeded getting Prague?

Almost nil

We had a couple of RCI confirmation cancellations recently, and were assigned a specialist to look for replacements. The specialist gets to look thru incoming inventory before they are released for ongoing searches, supposedly.

I gave her a short list of what I'd accept, and Prague was on it. She gave me the odds for each resort number, telling me how many deposits they'd had. Prague was none, or almost none. That's why I say "almost nil."

Maybe someone else who actually got an exchange there will chime in, and you can feel hopeful.

RCI has listed several resorts in the Czech Republic that seemed to just disappear or never even open. I wonder if this is another.

I remember once they had a resort listed in one of the famous Czech spa towns that from the directory appeared to be a functioning resort. I went to the street address listed in the directory when I happened to be in that town and found a boarded up former hotel with a faded sign with the same name as the ''resort'' listed in the RCI directory that very apparently had not had a thing done to it since it closed, obviously years before, as a hotel. To be sure, I asked a couple of people on the street if there were another establishment around with the same name and they said that the one I was looking at was it. Obviously someone had some wishful thinking to make it into a resort and that was enough for RCI to list it in the directory.

I have on a couple of rare occaisions seen inventory online at DAE in Prague and a bit more often at a resort in the north of the Czech Republic, Nova Amerika. You might put in a request with them.

Now RCI only lists one property in Czech Republic. All others that you mentioned must have been expunged.
