Have you talked to MS about extending your points? I’m an international holder and had banked 2019 points expiring at the end of Sept. MS is providing an extension until the end of May 2022. Not sure what your circumstances are, but may be worth a shot.im an international member who has 300 pts expiring at the end of november. hoping i can book at least 1 person with those points. I know I could rent them out and book a cruise with the cash, but I'm looking at this as a special bonus. It won't be a full member cruise (maybe?), but its the 2nd sailing of the wish, we'll get to be some of the first people on the boat. I'm hoping disney cruise line and dvc make it worth the points!
Yes, I have them extended until may 2022 currently (they still appear in my current use year, though I'm told the extension will happen once the points expire). That only leaves me with 5-6 months to book a trip, as currently I can't use those points to book anything post Nov 2021. So should the points for this cruise be in line with other cruises I'll likely do that.Have you talked to MS about extending your points?

Honestly, point rates are lower than what I was expecting.
IIRC, you are left with "reservation points" or some similar term, which can only be used outside the DVC resorts. You could use them for a different cruise or for the concierge collection stuff.I think I am going to book. Could someone explain what happens if you need to cancel when booked on points?
Traditionally, the books are reservation points, not DVC points. With the cancelled DVC MC this year, my cabin mate who had used points for her share had to use those points at a Disney resort during the UY. She wound up staying at the Grand Floridian in early May.I think I am going to book. Could someone explain what happens if you need to cancel when booked on points?
I never thought I would even consider using points for a cruise as it such a waste of points, but I am seriously tempted to book this. The points chart states, in bold, "Members should note that the Member exclusive, inaugural season voyage is not a DVC Member Cruise and as such, entertainment and offerings typically found on a Member cruise will not be available." This seems to state, "Don't expect anything special." Would that be an accurate interpretation?
