Points for Travelers Plus, Select Conn and RCI

I had 20000 unqualified, have added 5000 qualified and am now a member of Traveler's Plus etc. If I want to book a hot week or select connections or RCI Nightly Stays, am I only able to use the 5000 qualified or am I able to use the total number of points (25000) for hot week or select connections or RCI Nightly Stays? Anyone know?

Yes, I know the answer. If you own 5000 qualified points and 20000 unqualified points, you are a VIP/Charter member with unlimited bonus time and you qualify for Traveler Plus. As long as you remain a Traveler plus, you have access to Select Connections, RCI Points, Hot Weeks, etc. ALL 25000 of your points can be used for these features. You just do not become a Silver Premier member.

There is a way for you to become Silver Premier, but that requires a trade in of your 20000 points. You can trade them into the resort (if you can get a resort to agree to take it). Or, anyone else who may want to take it.

thank you

Thanks for the reply. I have to explore the trade in. However, except for the add'l maintenance fees, I may be better off buying more qualified points to reach from Pinnacle to reach premier status and just keeping the unqualified pkg.
