i currently have 7 award stays totaling a little over 800 points booked from now till june 2020....most of these were made prior to the announcement of peak/off peak awards & i made a couple since....all are genuine stays that my family & i will be utilizing so its just a good idea to have all these bookings in place before the changes are made....if rates increase or stay the same then i'm not losing out on anything & if rates decrease then i'll re-book at the lower rates before cancelling the current reservations....
