I have 2,000 saved points I must use before july 31.

I thought I would use them by going to Hot weeks, but the past few days when I click on ARK, for Hot weeks, nothing is available.

I wanted to go to Hot Springs, AR in June14-19, but I am getting to think it is not going to happen

I'm not sure you can use saved points for those anyway.

Thanks Charles,
I guess since I don't a Bluegreen yet I hadn't heard of it.

I do not think I am traveler Plus as this is the first I have heard of this. Where does this inventory come from and can it be booked online?

[jabjaw7 Member Find all posts View Profile Close jabjaw7]

When you log into bluegreenonline.com, Traveler Plus is one of the tabs.

click there, then click Point Smart, and then Resort Hot Weeks.

I am not sure where the inventory comes from, these are not Bluegreen Resorts. Maybe Bocca or Charles knows that answer...

Good luck to all trying to use Hot Weeks....

Hey in this economy, we can still go on vacation relatively cheap. You still would have to buy food even if you were home. We can actually control what vacation costs us. So who is the fool to believe in timeshares....

NOT US...

I have not used Hot Weeks but here is my guess. Since the inventory is USA plus international, it probably is unused weeks from RCI. You give Bluegreen 3000 points, BG gives RCI a week, and RCI gives you the week you selected. It appears that you can do it online but I did not click the "Book" button.

Hot Weeks are RCI weeks that are about to expire. I have seen BG resorts listed in hot weeks. When you show up they treat you just like any RCI exchange guest. I have sent my mother on several hot weeks to Branson. She is on my BG account but not my RCI account. I just call the resort ahead of time and tell them my mother is going to be checking in and give them her name. She has never had a problem. It is a good program.
