NORMALIZED CALENDAR

To help you determine when you can take advantage of the many benefits available to you, we are moving to a normalized calendar. This means each month will be considered to have 30 days regardless of the actual amount of days within that particular month. You will no longer need to count down to the exact number of days to determine the opening of your benefit window.

CHECK-IN DAY REQUIREMENTS*

LENGTH OF STAY REQUIREMENTS*

When booking 14 days or less prior to check-in, a one-night stay may now be booked.

*Some resorts in the CLUB WYNDHAM Plus portfolio require check-in on specific days and/or seven-night stays at all times. Please visit the individual points charts to determine requirements.

PRIORITY RESERVATIONS ONLINE

Now you have the ability to book most of your Priority Reservations online, including Advance Reservation Priority, Reciprocal Advance Reservation Priority and even Exclusive Access reservations for Presidential Reserve and Margaritaville Vacation Club? by Wyndham.

ROTATING PRIORITY LIST RETIREMENT

Effective immediately, the Rotating Priority List will be retired from CLUB WYNDHAM Plus due to the limited use of this benefit. This benefit attempted to provide the opportunity for owners to request travel during peak times at locations other than their "home" resort and went widely unused.

Last-Minute Reservations If you are making a reservation 15 days or less prior to check-in, you have 24 hours to cancel your reservation without forfeiting your points.

When booking a reservation for same-day check-in, the reservation must be canceled prior to 12 a.m. ET to avoid forfeiting your points.

CANCELLATION POLICY

We've simplified the Cancellation Policy to better support your vacation planning needs.

Canceling 15 Days or More Prior to Check-In If your reservation is canceled 15 days or more prior to the check-in date, the points used for the reservation will be returned to the Use Year from which they came and will retain all of their original benefits.

Points & Housekeeping Credits Rental* If you cancel a reservation made with rented CLUB WYNDHAM Plus points or Housekeeping Credits, in accordance with the Cancellation Policy, you will now receive a refund of those fees spent to the original source of payment. This also includes reservations made through WYNDHAM Club Pass.

*This applies only to reservations made and canceled after the launch of the upgraded system.

Canceling 14 Days or Less Prior to Check-In If your reservation is canceled 14 days or less prior to the check-in date, the points used for your reservation will be forfeited.

LOCK-OFF UNIT ? HOUSEKEEPING CREDITS

We've simplified the Housekeeping Credits required for lock-off units. There will be no difference in the amount of Housekeeping Credits required for a standard bedroom size and a lock-off unit.

OWN INCREASED FLEXIBILITY.

Whether you're planning a weekend getaway, a family retreat or the vacation of a lifetime, you have the flexibility to create the trip of your dreams.

POINTS DEPOSIT FEATURE

Enjoy additional flexibility with the new Points Deposit Feature. This benefit allows you to move all -- or a portion -- of your current Use Year points into a future Use Year.

You may deposit your points into your next Use Year or two Use Years from now, allowing you to use these points for the benefit of booking Standard and Express reservations at eligible CLUB WYNDHAM Plus locations in the future. Deposited points will expire at the end of the Use Year selected and may not be moved again. The Points Deposit Feature is available online for a fee of $39, or $49 when speaking to a Vacation Guide. Members wanting to use this feature must take action to deposit the points within three months after the start of the Use Year. This is considered a final transaction and the fee is nonrefundable.

With the launch of upgraded systems, the Points Deposit Feature is available online at .

The Points Deposit Feature is replacing the Points Credit Pool, which is being retired from the CLUB WYNDHAM Plus program. Points already in the Points Credit Pool may be used to book Standard and Express reservations until their expiration date. As we prepare for the upcoming changes, effective immediately, 2019 points will not be eligible to be placed into the Points Credit Pool.
