And then suddenly for only 24 hours the entire 7 days was available in the inventory. Then the 7 days changed back to the 5 days ever since. So, they play with these points inventories.
Thanks for sharing your experience. What I previously cancelled was a single night stay. And it didn't go back to inventory although it was a BAR one. But luckily I just decided to take a risk and cancelled another one, 2-night stay based on BAR. And it was redeposited right away so I could grab it with 240k points. So I have completed a 7-night stay based on point redemption in late Feb... awesome
