Sorry if this has been posted, but not seeing any base redemption rates available in Oct/Nov, only ability to upgrade. Seeing for 5 nights, 60k/night (5th free) with mandatory 300k to upgrade to OWV; 540k in total for 5 nights. Any experience in getting around this? Either booking the base rate through calling or booking the upgrade and asking for a refund on pts? From reading parts of this thread seems LTP have a good shot at getting upgraded to OWV. Would love to save the ~300k pts.
