When you are ready to confirm an exchange,
simply contact Member Services, and they will advise you of the
Vacation Points requirements. The number of Vacation Points required
for an exchange is determined by several factors, including the
destination, accommodation size, and travel dates. You can expect
that the Vacation Points requirements for these exchanges will usually
fall within the range of the Choice, Dream, and Magic Seasons on
the Disney Vacation Club Resort Vacation Points charts for
a one-bedroom or two-bedroom accommodation.
The first step is to choose your destination,
then determine the accommodation size you require and your travel
dates. Be sure to consider alternates for all of these, to increase
your chances of securing an exchange. Then contact Member Services,
and the Vacation Advisor will search the system to see which weeks
have been given up by the owners of the destination resorts. (These
are the accommodations that are available for you to confirm.) You
may be able to confirm your exchange immediately. If the destination,
accommodation or dates you prefer are not immediately available,
the Vacation Advisor can submit a search so that the system can
continue to look for a match for you. They will contact you to confirm
the exchange when it becomes available. Keep in mind that it may
take a while to secure a match, and while there is no guarantee,
good things often come to those who wait!
Remember
Should you cancel a confirmed Member
Getaways vacation (according to the guidelines required for
each collection), the Vacation/Reservation Points may be returned
to you. Reservation Points may not be converted back to Vacation
Points. They may only be used for booking a future Member Getaways
vacation within the same Use Year.
Vacation destinations
The World Passport Collection offers
you more vacation choices than we could possibly list in this space.

Maps.
Accommodations
As you review this section and visit our
web site at dvcmember.com,
you'll see a wide range of accommodations. They are all available
to you through the Member Getaways program. And since they
are not Disney properties, the resorts found in the World Passport
Collection will offer you new flavor, new flair, and new chances
at wonderful vacation memories. Enjoy the experience!
Traveler's tip
Having trouble choosing a destination? Don't
make your decision based on a single resort. Think about what area
of the world you'd like to see. Think about what you'd like to do.
Settle on a region or experience, then contact Member Services.
We'll do our best to help you find an accommodation in the area
you’d like to visit.
World Passport Collection exchanges
are arranged through two companies: Interval International®
and Buena Vista Trading Company. The destination and length of stay
will determine which one the Vacation Advisor will use to confirm
your exchange.
Interval International®
Exchanges
To confirm an exchange, you will trade a Disney
Vacation Club Resort accommodation for an Interval International
accommodation.
- The Vacation Advisor will help you select
the Disney Vacation Club Resort accommodation to trade.
This will be determined by several factors, including Disney
Vacation Club Resort availability, your booking window, size
of accommodation, etc.
- You can confirm your exchange up to two years
in advance!
- Exchanges are in seven-night increments (generally
from weekend to weekend).
- In order for an exchange week to be available
for you, an owner at a resort in the Interval International program
must give up their week for exchange.
FYI
The number of Vacation Points required for an Interval International
exchange usually falls within the range of the Choice, Dream, and
Magic Seasons for a one-bedroom or two-bedroom Vacation Home. You
may bank and borrow Vacation Points (according to the guidelines)
to secure an accommodation to trade.
Buena Vista Trading Company Exchanges
- The number of Vacation Points required
for the exchange is based on several factors, including Disney
Vacation Club Resort availability, your booking window, size
of accommodation, etc.
- You can confirm your exchange from seven
days up to ten months in advance, depending on the resort, your
length of stay, and several other factors.
- You can book the exchange on a nightly
basis, for as few or as many nights as you choose (seven-night
exchanges are confirmed through Interval International®).
- All exchanges are subject to availability.
