This means that DVC owners that are also RCI members will no longer be able to make vacation exchanges with RCI. If current members have confirmed RCI reservations or already have DVC points deposited into their network, no need to worry. Both of these will be honored through 2023. However, if current DVC members are looking to join an exchange network, it will be Interval International.

If a member isn’t fully sure they want to give up their points, they are able to use II’s Request First function. Request First allows members to put in a request for the vacation they want before depositing their points. After members deposit their points and find the perfect resort to exchange for, then they simply make the exchange! Once everything is confirmed, then the countdown to vacation begins!
