Since we leave next week and I have not "cashed in" any points for certs, I guess we will stay with the Ocean View room or maybe we might get lucky and get a PLT upgrade. Damn, poor choice of words for this forum this week.

I wouldn't cash in your points for certs. I was upgraded in Dec (as a silver, athough it was while talking with the Front Desk Mgr who had checked me in in Oct) from a pool view to the Deluxe Ocean View. I really didn't see much difference between the Deluxe Ocean View & the Ocean View except the bathrooms were a little bit different. Enjoy your stay -- let us know what you think afterwards!
