News from DVC today that they are launching something called "Membership Magic". Looks essentially like a way of bundling up some special offers to tempt us with. It's good to see that some member offers on passes have arrived, but sadly they are nothing like as good as the half price deal that was going a couple of years ago. Looks like it's possible to get a premium annual pass for about the same money as the UK 14 day ticket deal. The other ones that have caught our eye so far are member exclusive evenings at Splitsville and at some of the spas. Still work out fairly expensive, but its seems like they throw in some upgrades and/or extra treats along the way.
We'll have to keep investigating and see whether we want to take advantage of any of these offers nearer the time.
In the meantime, we are under 180 days to go now, so may have to start contemplating some restaurant bookings.
