How to Convert Timeshares to Points

Timeshare points offer much more flexibility in planning your vacation than timeshare weeks. If you already own timeshare weeks, you can exchange weeks for points by joining a points program. If you use points, your vacation need not be limited to your home resort and you have more control over the duration of the vacation. You can choose the type of accommodation you need irrespective of the resort through which you got the timesharing membership. You may even be able to use your points for airline tickets or for renting cars during your vacation.
