Log
- Published Page location: http://cabo.lam1.us/Weeks/2019
- Sunday, February 10, 2019 @ 8:38:45 PM (Alaska Time) - I purchased a return itinerary
- I delayed my return till Wednesday to get a 17,500 miles rate when I saw Mar de Cortez rooms available and booked those at the same time. The lowest Sunday rate was 40,000 miles and 25,000 miles Monday and Tuesday. The itinerary is not that great but I will settle.
- $259.85 for three nights at the Hotel Mar de Cortez
- $57.25 & 17,500 miles for Cabo to Fairbanks itinerary
- My RCI Search is still active
- Thursday, January 10, 2019 @ 11:04:23 PM (Alaska Time) - My vacation will start February 24, 2019.
- Yesterday I Confirmed an itinerary for the Start of the vacation using 17,500 Airline miles and paying $33.29 USD for fees and taxes. This morning I cancelled the RCI search for 2/17/2019 and left only the 3/17/2019 search open. I had looked Monday but the 17,500 itineraries did not include the good one I now have and two days later it did. I was specifically looking for miles seats just over six weeks from the departure when experience tells me new ones are released that were not previously available. I think there is another release at three weeks out but I decided not to wait to lock in the start of the vacation.
- I can wait three to six more weeks to lock in the end of my vacation.
- Wednesday, September 26, 2018 @ 1:26:03 PM Alaska Time) I called Playa Grande and was able to exchange week 27 for week 10. My new check in date is Sunday March 10, 2019 following my fixed weeks 8 and 9.
- Yesterday I had paid the maintenance fee online but it was after hours and I could not do the exchange until today.
- Today I also adjusted the RCO Ongoing search so it is still searching for a week before or after the current weeks.
- Tuesday, May 1, 2018 @ 2:40:14 PM (Alaska Time) Created this page and linked it to cabo.lam1.us/Weeks
- I haven't done anything for 2019 so if I pay the maintenance fee I can show up for The Ridge at Playa Grande D-3031 Master Suite (1 Bedroom, two bathrooms) Sunday Check-In weeks 8 & 9
