Welcome
As many of you know, each year when the weather starts to cool down, so starts our bonus week season in some parts of Australia and New Zealand. This year is no exception, with great holiday opportunities available at really good resorts in some of the colder regions. Please consider taking advantage of really low trading power or great dollar value holidays that add an extra dimension of value to your RCI membership. Browse www.rci.com or give us a call to find out the best locations.
I’m pleased to advise that we are now receiving deposits from the great new Wyndham Resort in Torquay. This property is in a fantastic location right on the beach and so close to Melbourne. Keep a look
out for availability over the coming months and get set to explore this great area that we haven’t had exchange availability in before. There’s more information on this and other new affiliate resorts on page 40.
Make sure you check out the Bonus Weeks for this season, as we have some great deals you can take advantage of if you are able to travel at short notice.
The New Zealand Holiday Ownership Conference will be held in Taupo in coming weeks and RCI is proud to be a major sponsor and contributor to this event.
From all of us at RCI, have fun and safe travels.
