RCI Tips

Did you know you can run searches for last minute weeks stays? It is as easy as phoning RCI (1.877.968.7476) and setting up a flexible search*

*It must be at a weeks resort, using points and checking in within 45 days, using available inventory (ie: not likely to find Canada in the summer months or Hawaii at Xmas)

From Aviawest AGM
At the recent Aviawest Annual General Meeting a member raised the issue of whether or not membership certificates should be re-issued due to the name change.

A motion was passed requesting that legal advice be sought on this issue. Richard Rhodes, Aviawest legal counsel, has now replied: click here for response
