M.O.R. Vacations – A Company Overview
MOR Vacations (or Member Only Resort Vacations) is the latest Travel Club to launch itself into the Travel industry. It was announced on Friday, August 15th, 2008 and is taking the Internet by storm. The company may have just launched, but it certainly is not a “new kid” on the block. In fact, the parent membership company behind MOR Vacations has been around for 23 years and has more than 100,000 active members.
Three main differences exist between this existing 100,000 member base and those who join up with MOR Vacations. For one, MOR Vacations sells for 1/3 of what the existing membership sells for. Add to that the fact that MOR Vacations membership has no fees for life as opposed to the $200 annual fee of the existing membership. Lastly, MOR Vacations will be available for purchase via a company sponsored financing program.
Just what exactly is a Travel Club? Well this concept became popular in the 80’s as an alternative to the Timeshare ownership route. Travel Clubs typically offer large networks of resorts, more affordable prices and less fees while still providing the travel weeks based structure of Timeshares. In the case of MOR Vacations, the have 5,400 resorts (most 4 and 5 stars), travel weeks starting from just $149 a week in close by US destinations, no annual, monthly or usage fees and no restrictions on travel (no black out dates or limits on travel).
Don’t confuse a Travel Club with a Timeshare – the two concepts could not be further apart. The Timeshare model is based on ownership, the Travel Club model is based on membership. The problem with the ownership model is that it is very costly, has many limitations on travel and has a very narrow network of resorts.
So rather than an expensive Timeshare purchase, you can make a single purchase for a lifetime membership in a Travel Club for just a fraction of the cost. You even get special features with a Travel Club that you’ll never get with a Timeshare, such as unlimited guest weeks.
Travel Clubs are all about you, the consumer. They provide you with more flexibility, more options, more choices, more discounts and more access to more resorts all while providing you deep discounts on prices that simply cannot be matched.
