Thanks so much for responding
Thanks for the google search link. I searched the Marriott site on flyertalk and I believe they are having problems. Nothing showed. Should have turned to google.
I figure the travel package is the best way to go. But I can cash in for more miles next time. In this instance, I might go with five nights and pay two, because I could end up without an upgrade. I'd rather use more points when I have more confidence in an upgrade. I'll call the resort as I get close to deadline time with the certificate.
Again, my appreciation for your time and suggestions.
