CTC is a licensed and bonded seller of travel services providing its members with access to certain benefits and travel services described herein.
CTC Membership Renewal by payment of Annual Dues Annual Dues for renewal of the annual membership are currently $199.00 and payable to CTC. First year dues are paid and expire one year from the date of signed membership contract. Dues must be paid in a single annual payment in advance of the year to which the dues shall apply. You will not be allowed to use CTC services unless your dues are current and paid for the year. If dues are not paid on time, there will be a charge of $499.00 to reinstate you to the Platinum level of membership. Your annual dues are stated in, and must be paid in, U.S. Dollars. Membership terminates after a year unless Member makes payment upon receipt of the Annual Renewal Statement; whether or not the membership is terminated, any unpaid balance towards travel or membership purchase will remain due and payable. The amount of your annual renewal dues may be increased each year, upon 30 days advance written notice, by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index for the calendar year prior to the year for which the increase is being made. Consumer Price Index means the consumer price index for all urban consumers as reported by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Condominium Access Members, Friends and Family must be a minimum of 21 years of age to book a condominium. Some properties require a minimum age of 25 to access their properties. We do not guarantee multiple week reservations at the same property. Successive weeks may be requested but may not be available at Member Pricing. Condominium access is designed and works best on a “one (1) week at a time basis”. Check-in dates are set by the individual resort and usually occur on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday. All accommodations and travel are on a space available basis. We use a network of condominium suppliers that keeps track of all inventory in particular areas and resorts. As inventory becomes available, we confirm your request. Unlike booking a hotel, we have no control over which resorts, destinations or dates are going to be relinquished by an owner, exchange company, developer or property Management Company. Once we have confirmed your request was received, you can be assured that we are constantly and consistently searching for your vacation week. Once your reservation is confirmed, orally or in writing, there will be no opportunities for refunds. All confirmations are final, non-transferable and non-refundable. Therefore, when making a request, be sure it is where and when you want to travel. If you need to cancel, be sure to do so before we confirm your request. Confirmations will be sent via email or if none, by U.S. Mail. Documents will be mailed to the address given on the request form. We can have your documents delivered by an express mail company for an additional fee. We will not assume the responsibility for documents not received due to failure of the U.S. Postal Service. Guests’ Responsibilities—The member will be responsible for any damage, abuse or vandalism to any room, condo-apartment, common area, etc. caused by the member or guest except for normal wear and tear. Resort facilities, amenities and services vary by country, location and resort. Room accommodations vary in size, decor and interior detail. Members must abide by the rules and regulations of the resort they are visiting. All resorts insist that a responsible adult over age 21 (sometimes 25) for condominiums is responsible for any charges incurred at the individual resorts. New reservations will not be confirmed if there are outstanding charges from previous vacations.
