There is another possibility you guys know, that the CP J'lem was unhappy about being on the PB list (and only getting reimbursed $30/room) and simply zeroed out award inventory for the entire PB period.  Wouldn't put that past 'em.
Possibly. But nobody was having these complains last year when the were on PB till the end of June

The only thing is that Priority Club informed me that as per PC rules every hotel must allow at least a certain amount (which they would not disclose) of reward rooms whether they like it or not.

How do hotels get picked for PB? Can they option out all together?

Holiday Inn Express near Newport RI is on the list. Hotels are not cheap there in the Summer and a great family trip.

This may have been discussed somewhere else but I couldn't find it.

If I book a pointbreaks room, and later want to change the date, will I be able to at the same 5000 point rate?
Or once I book I'm locked in?

in general when making a PC reservation with points when changing the dates it's considered like a totally new reservation I suggest reserving both dates you might want and canceling the one you don't want.

Dang it! There was a Crown Plaza in Bucks County PA that was available for 5,000. It was originally on the Pointbreaks list, then it got taken off, but when going to the hotels page it still showed as bookable for 5K. I transferred UR, and it took almost 24 hours to transfer by which time the hotel went back up to 20K :(

PC hotels don't generally care about your status.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
