Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure | Background and Basis of Presentation Background On January 5, 2021, Wyndham Destinations, Inc. acquired the Travel + Leisure brand and all related assets from Meredith Corporation (“Meredith”). In connection with this acquisition, Wyndham Destinations, Inc. changed its name to Travel + Leisure Co. and changed its ticker symbol to TNL on February 17, 2021. The newly named Travel + Leisure Co. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Travel + Leisure,” or the “Company,” formerly Wyndham Destinations, Inc.) is a global provider of hospitality services and travel products. The Company operates in two segments: Vacation Ownership (formerly Wyndham Vacation Clubs) and Travel and Membership (formerly Vacation Exchange or Panorama). In connection with the Travel + Leisure brand acquisition the Company elected to update its segment names to better align with how the segments will be referred to internally and externally. The Vacation Ownership segment develops, markets, and sells vacation ownership interests (“VOIs”) to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts. The Travel and Membership segment operates a variety of travel businesses, including three vacation exchange brands, a home exchange network, travel technology platforms, travel memberships, and direct-to-consumer rentals. The results of operations for 2020 include impacts related to the novel coronavirus global pandemic (“COVID-19”), which have been significantly negative for the travel industry, the Company, its customers, and employees. The Company’s response to COVID-19 initially focused on the health and safety of its owners, members, guests, and employees, when it closed the majority of its resorts and sales centers. As a result, the Company significantly reduced its workforce and furloughed thousands of employees. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has reopened 81% of its resorts (92% as of the date of this filing) and reopened 86% of its sales offices (92% as of the date of this filing). Throughout 2020, many of the Company’s employees returned to work as locations reopened; however, the Company exited the year with approximately 5,300 employees either laid off or furloughed. The Company’s reopening plans were negatively impacted in the fourth quarter of 2020 by government shutdowns in California and Hawaii, which required temporarily closing resorts previously reopened. The Company estimates that the remaining suspended operations will resume in early 2021. Given these significant events, the Company’s revenues were negatively impacted and $385 million of charges related to COVID-19 were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2020, which are discussed in further detail in Note 26— COVID-19 Related Items . The Company was also keenly focused on preserving cash, cutting costs, and managing liquidity. As a precautionary measure to enhance liquidity, the Company drew down its $1.0 billion revolving credit facility at the end of the first quarter of 2020, and subsequently issued new $650 million senior secured notes, with a portion of these proceeds used to pay down borrowings under its revolving credit facility. The Company also amended the credit agreement for its revolving credit facility and term loan B, which provided flexibility during the relief period spanning from July 15, 2020 through April 1, 2022. See Note 16— Debt for additional details. Additionally, the Company suspended share repurchase activity since March 2020. On April 29, 2020, the Company successfully closed on a $325 million private securitization financing. While this transaction was at a higher cost compared to transactions the Company has completed in the past, it was favorable to similar transactions completed in the public market at that time. The Company also closed on a $575 million securitization financing on August 13, 2020, at a similar cost compared to transactions it has completed in the past. These transactions positively impacted the Company’s liquidity and reinforced its expectation to maintain adequate liquidity for the near future. On August 7, 2019, the Company acquired Alliance Reservations Network (“ARN”) for $102 million ($97 million net of cash acquired). ARN provides private-label travel booking technology solutions. This acquisition was undertaken for the purpose of accelerating growth at Travel and Membership by increasing the offerings available to its members and affiliates. The Company has recognized the assets and liabilities of ARN based on estimates of their acquisition date fair values, including the impacts of certain post-closing adjustments. ARN is reported within the Travel and Membership segment. See Note 5— Acquisitions for additional details. During 2018, the Company completed the sale of its European vacation rentals business and completed the spin-off of its hotel business (“Spin-off”) into a separate publicly traded company, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, Inc. (“Wyndham Hotels”). This transaction was effected through a pro rata distribution of the new hotel entity’s stock to Travel + Leisure shareholders. In connection with the Spin-off, the Company entered into certain agreements with Wyndham Hotels to implement the legal and structural separation, govern the relationship between the Company and Wyndham Hotels up to and after the completion of the separation, and allocate various assets, liabilities, and obligations, including, among other things, employee benefits, intellectual property, and tax-related assets and liabilities between the Company and Wyndham Hotels. The two public companies have entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain their affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards, as well as to continue to collaborate on inventory-sharing and customer cross-sell initiatives. For all relevant periods presented, the Company has classified the results of operations for its hotel business and its European vacation rentals business as discontinued operations. See Note 6— Discontinued Operations for further details. Also during 2018, the Company decided to explore strategic alternatives for its North American vacation rentals business and on October 22, 2019, completed the sale of this business for $162 million. The assets and liabilities of this business were classified as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2018. This business did not meet the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation; therefore, the results of operations are reflected within continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income through the date of sale. See Note 7— Held-for-Sale Business for further details. Basis of Presentation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include the accounts and transactions of Travel + Leisure, as well as the entities in which Travel + Leisure directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to comply with newly adopted accounting standards. The Company presents an unclassified balance sheet which conforms to that of the Company’s peers and industry practice. In presenting the Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. In management’s opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of annual results reported. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION When evaluating an entity for consolidation, the Company first determines whether an entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If the entity is deemed to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be the entity’s primary beneficiary and consolidates those VIEs for which the Company would be the primary beneficiary. The Company will also consolidate an entity not deemed a VIE upon determination that the Company has a controlling financial interest. For entities where the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, the investments in such entities are accounted for using the equity or cost method, as appropriate. REVENUE RECOGNITION In 2018, the Company adopted the Revenue from Contracts with Customers guidance utilizing the full retrospective transition method. Refer to Note 3— Revenue Recognition for full details of the Company’s revenue recognition policies. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. RESTRICTED CASH The largest portion of the Company’s restricted cash relates to securitizations. The remaining portion is comprised of cash held in escrow accounts. Securitizations. In accordance with the contractual requirements of the Company’s various vacation ownership contract receivable (“VOCR”) securitizations, a dedicated lockbox account, subject to a blocked control agreement, is established for each securitization. At each month end, the total cash in the collection account from the previous month is analyzed and a monthly servicer report is prepared by the Company, which details how much cash should be remitted to the note holders for principal and interest payments, and any cash remaining is transferred by the trustee back to the Company. Additionally, as required by various securitizations, the Company holds an agreed-upon percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the VOI contract receivables collateralizing the asset-backed notes in a segregated trust account as credit enhancement. Each time a securitization closes and the Company receives cash from the note holders, a portion of the cash is deposited in the trust account. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, restricted cash for securitizations totaled $92 million and $110 million. Escrow Deposits. Laws in most U.S. states require the escrow of down payments on VOI sales, with the typical requirement mandating that the funds be held in escrow until the rescission period expires. As sales transactions are consummated, down payments are collected and are subsequently placed in escrow until the rescission period has expired. Rescission periods vary by state, but range on average from five seven RECEIVABLE VALUATION Trade receivables The Company provides for estimated bad debts based on its assessment of the ultimate ability to realize receivables, considering historical collection experience, the economic environment, and specific customer information. When the Company determines that an account is not collectible, the account is written-off to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The following table illustrates the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts activity from continuing operations for the year ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ 154 $ 104 $ 78 Bad debt expense 125 100 75 Write-offs (58) (51) (49) Translation and other adjustments — 1 — Ending balance $ 221 $ 154 $ 104 Vacation ownership contract receivables In the Vacation Ownership segment, the Company provides for estimated VOCR defaults at the time of VOI sales by recording a provision for loan losses as a reduction of Vacation ownership interest sales on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses related to these VOIs using a technique referred to as a static pool analysis. This analysis is based upon the historical performance of similar VOCRs and incorporates more recent history of default information. Management prepares a model to track defaults for each year's sales over the entire life of the contract receivable as a means to project future expected losses. A qualitative assessment is also performed to determine whether any external economic conditions or internal portfolio characteristics indicate an adjustment is necessary to reflect expected impacts on the contract receivables portfolio. If current or expected future conditions differ from the conditions in effect when the historical experience was generated, the Company adjusts the allowance for loan losses to reflect the expected effects of the current environment on the collectability of VOCR. Due to the economic disruption resulting from COVID-19, the Company estimated an additional loan loss allowance related to the impacts on its owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables. The Company based its COVID-19 loan loss estimate upon historical data on the relationship between unemployment rates and net new defaults observed during the most recent recession in 2008. INVENTORY Inventory primarily consists of completed VOIs, VOIs under construction, land held for future VOI development, vacation exchange credits, and real estate interests sold subject to conditional repurchase. The Company applies the relative sales value method for relieving VOI inventory and recording the related cost of sales. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is recorded using a percentage ratio of total estimated development cost to total estimated VOI revenue, including estimated future revenue and incorporating factors such as changes in prices and the recovery of VOIs generally as a result of contract receivable defaults. The effect of such changes in estimates under the relative sales value method is accounted for in each period using a current-period adjustment to inventory and cost of sales. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, including capitalized interest, property taxes, and certain other carrying costs incurred during the construction process, or estimated fair value less costs to sell. Capitalized interest was less than $1 million in 2020, and $1 million in both 2019 and 2018. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment (including leasehold improvements) are recorded at cost, and presented net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, recorded as a component of Depreciation and amortization on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease terms or estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements, also recorded as a component of Depreciation and amortization, is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated benefit period of the related assets or the lease terms. Useful lives are generally 30 years for buildings, up to 20 years for leasehold improvements, up to 30 years for vacation rental properties, and from three The Company capitalizes the costs of software developed for internal use in accordance with the guidance for accounting for costs of computer software developed or obtained fo r internal use. Capitalization of software costs developed for internal use commences during the development phase of the pro ject. The Company amortizes software developed or obtained for internal use on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, which is generally three The net carrying value of software developed or obtained for internal use was $191 million and $193 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Capitalized interest was $1 million, $2 million, and $1 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS The Company uses derivative instruments as part of its overall strategy to manage its exposure to market risks primarily associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. As a matter of policy, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. All derivatives are recorded at fair value either as assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and of derivatives designated as fair value hedging instruments are recognized in Operating (loss)/income and net interest expense, based upon the nature of the hedged item, on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments are recorded as components of other comprehensive income. Amounts included in other comprehensive income are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged item affects earnings. INCOME TAXES The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based upon the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using currently enacted tax rates. These differences are based upon estimated differences between the book and tax basis of the assets and liabilities for the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company recognizes the effects of changes in tax laws, or rates, as a component of income taxes from continuing operations within the period that includes the enactment date. The Company’s deferred tax assets are recorded net of a valuation allowance when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. Decreases to the valuation allowance are recorded as reductions to the Company’s provision for income taxes and increases to the valuation allowance result in additional provision for income taxes. The realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowance, is primarily dependent on estimated future taxable income. A change in the Company’s estimate of future taxable income may require an addition to or reduction from the valuation allowance. For tax positions the Company has taken or expects to take in a tax return, the Company applies a more likely than not threshold, under which the Company must conclude a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information, in order to recognize or continue to recognize the benefit. In determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company uses judgment, reflecting its estimates and assumptions, in applying the more likely than not threshold. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of (Benefit from)/provision for income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. During 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance on the accounting for tax on the global intangible low-taxed income provisions of the recently enacted tax law. These provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The Company has elected to treat taxes due on future inclusions in taxable income as a current-period expense when incurred. During the fourth quarter of 2018, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 - Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act , the Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of the U.S. tax reform recorded for 2017. LOYALTY PROGRAMS The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program, which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The primary performance obligation for the program relates to brand performance services. Total contract consideration is estimated and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Revenues relating to the RCI Elite Rewards program, which are recorded in Other revenues on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $13 million, $15 million, and $12 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. Expenses related to this program, which are recorded within Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $7 million, $9 million, and $5 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The liabilities associated with the program as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, were $15 million and $18 million, and are included within Deferred income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the Spin-off, the Company has entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain its affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards. Wyndham Rewards members accumulate points by staying in hotels franchised under one of the Wyndham Hotels brands, and by purchasing everyday services and products utilizing their co-branded credit cards. Members may redeem their points for hotel stays, airline tickets, rental cars, resort vacations, electronics, sporting goods, movie and theme park tickets, gift certificates, vacation ownership maintenance fees, annual membership dues, and exchange fees for transactions. ADVERTISING EXPENSE Advertising costs are expensed in the period incurred and are recorded within Marketing expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Advertising costs were $26 million, $37 million, and $27 million in 2020, 2019, and 2018. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In accordance with the guidance for stock-based compensation, the Company measures all stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and records the related expense in its Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. LONG-LIVED ASSETS Assets such as customer lists, management agreements, and trademarks acquired by the Company are classified as intangible assets and recorded at their fair value as of the date of the acquisition and categorized as having either a finite life or an indefinite life. Assets deemed to have a finite life are assigned an appropriate useful life and amortized on a straight-line basis. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company has goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded in connection with business combinations. The Company annually (during the fourth quarter of each year subsequent to completing the Company’s annual forecasting process), or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill may be impaired, reviews the reporting units’ carrying values as required by the guidance for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. This is done either by performing a qualitative assessment or a quantitative assessment, with an impairment being recognized only if a reporting unit’s fair value is less than carrying value. In any given year the Company can elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is in excess of its carrying value. If it is not more likely than not that the fair value is in excess of the carrying value, or the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, it would utilize the quantitative assessment. The qualitative factors evaluated include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, the Company’s historical share price as well as other industry-specific considerations. Under current accounting guidance, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not subject to amortization. However, goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives are subject to fair value-based rules for measuring impairment, and resulting write-downs, if any, are reflected in Asset impairments. The Company has goodwill recorded at its Vacation Ownership and Travel and Membership reporting units. The Company performed a qualitative analysis for each of its reporting units for each quarter of 2020, including its annual fourth quarter analysis as of October 1, 2020. Additionally, the Company performed quantitative assessments of the goodwill acquired as part of the ARN acquisition during the third and fourth quarters of 2020 which resulted in the fair value exceeding the carrying value. For the quantitative assessment performed in the fourth quarter as part of the Company’s annual impairment analysis on October 1, 2020, it was determined that the fair value exceeded the carrying amount by approximately 20%. Based on the results of these qualitative and quantitative assessments the Company determined that ARN’s goodwill is not impaired and that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired at the Company’s other reporting units. The Company also evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred, pursuant to guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. Property and equipment is evaluated separately within each segment. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value. In addition to the goodwill assessment mentioned above, as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 the Company performed an impairment analysis on select long-lived assets during 2020. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded $56 million of COVID-19 related impairment charges during 2020 with $51 million included in Asset impairments and $5 million included in Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. See Note 26— COVID-19 Related Items for additional details. ACCOUNTING FOR RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES The Company’s restructuring activities require it to make significant estimates in several areas including (i) expenses for severance and related benefit costs, (ii) the ability to generate sublease income, as well as its ability to terminate lease obligations, and (iii) contract terminations. The amount that the Company accrued as of December 31, 2020, represents its best estimate of the obligations incurred in connection with these actions, but could change due to various factors including market conditions, the outcome of negotiations with third parties, or the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. OTHER INCOME During 2020, the Company recorded $14 million of other income primarily related to (i) settlements of various business interruption claims at its Vacation Ownership segment and (ii) value added tax provision releases at its Travel and Membership segment. During 2019, the Company recorded $23 million of other income primarily related to (i) settlements of various business interruption claims, (ii) value added tax provision releases at its Travel and Membership segment, and (iii) profit sharing at its Travel and Membership segment. During 2018, the Company recorded $38 million of income related to (i) value added tax refunds at its Travel and Membership segment, (ii) settlements of various business interruption claims, and (iii) co-branded revenue at its Vacation Ownership segment. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance amends the accounting for hybrid tax regimes where a tax jurisdiction imposes the greater of tax based on income versus tax based on another measurement basis, addresses the recognition of tax basis in goodwill not generated through a business combination, eliminates certain exceptions to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation when a loss from continuing operations exists, calculating interim period taxes related to enacted changes in tax law, requirements in the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences and exceptions to the ability not to recognize deferred tax liability for a foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary. The issued guidance also clarifies the financial statement presentation for tax benefits related to tax deductible dividends. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Reference Rate Reform . In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This guidance was effective as of March 12, 2020, and will apply through December 31, 2022. The transition from LIBOR based benchmark rates is expected to begin January 1, 2022 and be completed when U.S. Dollar (“USD”) LIBOR rates are phased out by June 30, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the transition from LIBOR on its financial statements and related disclosures and the related impact of this guidance on the transition. On October 27, 2020, the Company closed on the renewal of its USD bank conduit facility (see Note 16— Debt for additional details) and adopted appropriate LIBOR disclosures for asset-backed securities (“ABS”) financing structures as part of the renewal. The Company intends to adopt such language, as appropriate, in its other relevant agreements prior to the end of 2021. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance which amends the guidance on measuring credit losses on financial assets held at amortized cost. The guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the fiscal year. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as the Company’s prior approach in estimating the allowance for loan losses generally aligned with the expected credit loss model required upon adoption of this guidance. The Company has included additional disclosures in accordance with the adoption of this guidance, which are included in Note 10— Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables . As part of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement, the Company made an accounting policy election to present accrued interest receivable within Trade receivables, net separate from its Vacation ownership contract receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and elected not to estimate an allowance for credit losses on the accrued interest receivable balance. Once a contract is 91 days past due, the Company ceases accruing interest and reverses all accrued interest recognized to date against interest income included within Consumer financing revenue on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company resumes accruing interest for contracts which it had previously ceased accruing interest once the contract is less than 91 days past due. Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies the current two-step goodwill impairment test by eliminating step two of the test. The guidance requires a one-step impairment test in which an entity compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the fiscal year, and was applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition Vacation Ownership The Company develops, markets, and sells VOIs to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts. The Company’s sales of VOIs are either cash sales or developer-financed sales. Developer financed sales are typically collateralized by the underlying VOI. Revenue is recognized on VOI sales upon transfer of control, which is defined as the point in time when a binding sales contract has been executed, the financing contract has been executed for the remaining transaction price, the statutory rescission period has expired, and the transaction price has been deemed to be collectible. For developer-financed sales, the Company reduces the VOI sales transaction price by an estimate of uncollectible consideration at the time of the sale. The Company’s estimates of uncollectible amounts are based largely on the results of the Company’s static pool analysis which relies on historical payment data by customer class. In connection with entering into a VOI sale, the Company may provide its customers with certain non-cash incentives, such as credits for future stays at its resorts. For those VOI sales, the Company bifurcates the sale and allocates the sales price between the VOI sale and the non-cash incentive. Non-cash incentives generally have expiration periods of 18 months or less and are recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control. The Company provides day-to-day property management services including oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance, and certain accounting and administrative services for property owners’ associations and clubs. These services may also include reservation and resort renovation activities. Such agreements are generally for terms of one year or less, and are renewed automatically on an annual basis. The Company’s management agreements contain cancellation clauses, which allow for either party to cancel the agreement, by either a majority board vote or a majority vote of non-developer interests. The Company receives fees for such property management services which are collected monthly in advance and are based upon total costs to operate such resorts (or as services are provided in the case of resort renovation activities). Fees for property management services typically approximate 10% of budgeted operating expenses. The Company is entitled to consideration for reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of the property owners’ association in providing management services (“reimbursable revenue”). These reimbursable costs principally relate to the payroll costs for management of the associations, club and resort properties where the Company is the employer and are reflected as a component of Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company reduces its management fees for amounts it has paid to the property owners’ association that reflect maintenance fees for VOIs for which it retains ownership, as the Company has concluded that such payments are consideration payable to a customer. Property management fee revenues are recognized when the services are performed and are recorded as a component of Service and membership fees on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Property management revenues, which are comprised of management fee revenue and reimbursable revenue, for the years ended December 31, were (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Management fee revenue $ 343 $ 394 $ 314 Reimbursable revenues 252 308 351 Property management revenues $ 595 $ 702 $ 665 One of the associations that the Company manages paid its Travel and Membership segment $27 million for exchange services during 2020, and $29 million during both 2019 and 2018. Travel and Membership As a provider of vacation exchange services, the Company enters into affiliation agreements with developers of vacation ownership properties to allow owners of VOIs to trade their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange network and, for some members, for other leisure-related services and products. Travel and Membership derives a majority of revenues from membership dues and fees for facilitating members’ trading of their intervals. Revenues from membership dues represent the fees paid by members or affiliated clubs on their behalf. The Company recognizes revenues from membership dues paid by the member on a straight-line basis over the membership period as the performance obligations are fulfilled through delivery of publications, if applicable, and by providing access to travel-related products and services. Estimated net contract consideration payable by affiliated clubs for memberships is recognized as revenue over the term of the contract with the affiliated club in proportion to the estimated average monthly member count. Such estimates are adjusted periodically for changes in the actual and forecasted member activity. For additional fees, members have the right to exchange their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange networks and, for certain members, for other leisure-related services and products. The Company also derives revenue from facilitating bookings of travel accommodations for both members and non-members. Revenue is recognized when these transactions have been confirmed, net of expected cancellations. The Company’s vacation exchange business also derives revenues from programs with affiliated resorts, club servicing, and loyalty programs; and additional exchange-related products that provide members with the ability to protect trading power or points, extend the life of deposits, and combine two or more deposits for the opportunity to exchange into intervals with higher trading power. Other vacation exchange related product fees are deferred and recognized as revenue upon the occurrence of a future exchange, event, or other related transaction. The Company also derives revenue from other travel products and services, enabled as a result of the 2019 acquisition of ARN and via the Company’s resort services solution business, optimizing business to business (“B2B”) capabilities, and integration for consumer travel planning. The Company’s relationships and buying power with major travel suppliers provide its partners with access to some of the most compelling travel inventory in the industry. The Company’s affiliates and members enjoy inventory from accommodation wholesalers, airfare, and rental car providers. The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program, which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The primary performance obligation for the program relates to brand performance services. Total contract consideration is estimated and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Prior to the sale of the vacation rental businesses, the Company’s vacation rental brands derived revenue from fees associated with the rental of vacation properties managed and marketed by the Company on behalf of independent owners. The Company remitted the rental fee received from the renter to the independent owner, net of the Company’s agreed-upon fee. The related revenue from such fees, net of expected refunds, was recognized over the renter’s stay. The Company’s vacation rental brands also derived revenues from additional services delivered to independent owners, vacation rental guests, and property owners’ associations which were generally recognized when the service was delivered. Other Items The Company records property management services revenues and RCI Elite Rewards revenues for its Vacation Ownership and Travel and Membership segments gross as a principal. Contract Liabilities Contract liabilities generally represent payments or consideration received in advance for goods or services that the Company has not yet transferred to the customer. Contract liabilities as of December 31, were as follows (in millions): 2020 2019 Deferred subscription revenue $ 176 $ 206 Deferred VOI trial package revenue 115 145 Deferred VOI incentive revenue 74 107 Deferred exchange-related revenue (a) 59 58 Deferred co-branded credit card programs revenue 16 19 Deferred other revenue 8 4 Total $ 448 $ 539 (a) Includes contractual liabilities to accommodate members for cancellations initiated by the Company due to unexpected events. These amounts are included within Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In the Company’s vacation ownership business, deferred VOI trial package revenue represents consideration received in advance for a trial VOI, which allows customers to utilize a vacation package typically within one year of purchase. Deferred VOI incentive revenue represents payments received in advance for additional travel-related services and products at the time of a VOI sale. Revenue is recognized when a customer utilizes the additional services and products, which is typically within one year of the VOI sale. Within the Company’s vacation exchange business, deferred subscription revenue represents billings and payments received in advance from members and affiliated clubs for memberships in the Company’s vacation exchange programs which are recognized in future periods. Deferred exchange-related revenue primarily represents payments received in advance from members for the right to exchange their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange networks and for other leisure-related services and products which are generally recognized as revenue within one year. Changes in contract liabilities for the years ended December 31, follow (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ 539 $ 519 $ 556 Additions 223 387 352 Revenue recognized (314) (367) (341) Held-for-sale — — (38) Other — — (10) Ending balance $ 448 $ 539 $ 519 Capitalized Contract Costs The Company’s Vacation Ownership segment incurs certain direct and incremental selling costs in connection with VOI trial package and incentive revenues. Such costs are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the utilization period, which is typically within one year of the sale. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, these capitalized costs were $41 million and $53 million; and are included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s Travel and Membership segment incurs certain direct and incremental selling costs to obtain contracts with customers in connection with subscription revenues and exchange–related revenues. Such costs, which are primarily comprised of commissions paid to internal and external parties and credit card processing fees, are deferred at the inception of the contract and recognized when the benefit is transferred to the customer. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, these capitalized costs were $16 million and $20 million; and are included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Practical Expedients The Company has not adjusted the consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if it expected, at contract inception, that the period between when the Company satisfied the performance obligation and when the customer paid for that good or service was one year or less. Performance Obligations A performance obligation is a promise in a contract with a customer to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. The consideration received from a customer is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, each performance obligation is satisfied. The following table summarizes the Company’s remaining performance obligations for the 12-month periods set forth below (in millions): 2021 2022 2023 Thereafter Total Subscription revenue $ 105 $ 37 $ 17 $ 17 $ 176 VOI trial package revenue 115 — — — 115 VOI incentive revenue 74 — — — 74 Exchange-related revenue 55 3 1 — 59 Co-branded credit card programs revenue 4 3 3 6 16 Other revenue 8 — — — 8 Total $ 361 $ 43 $ 21 $ 23 $ 448 Disaggregation of Net Revenues The table below presents a disaggregation of the Company’s net revenues from contracts with customers by major services and products for each of the Company’s segments (in millions): Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Vacation Ownership Property management fees and reimbursable revenues $ 595 $ 702 $ 665 Vacation ownership interest sales (a) 505 1,848 1,769 Consumer financing 467 515 491 Fee-for-Service commissions 22 18 31 Ancillary revenues 48 68 60 Total Vacation Ownership 1,637 3,151 3,016 Travel and Membership Exchange revenues 474 647 658 Vacation rental revenues (b) — 153 170 Ancillary revenues 54 98 90 Total Travel and Membership 528 898 918 Corporate and other Ancillary revenues — 1 — Eliminations (5) (7) (3) Total Corporate and other (5) (6) (3) Net revenues $ 2,160 $ 4,043 $ 3,931 (a) The Company increased its loan loss allowance by $205 million during 2020, due to an expected increase in defaults driven by higher unemployment associated with COVID-19, which is reflected as a reduction to Vacation ownership interest sales on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income.

Earnings Per Share Reconciliation [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Earnings/(Loss) Per Share The computations of basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share (“EPS”) are based on Net (loss)/income attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders divided by the basic weighted average number of common shares and diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted EPS (in millions, except per share data): Year Ended December 31, 2020 2019 2018 Net (loss)/income from continuing operations attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders $ (253) $ 489 $ 266 Loss from operations of discontinued businesses attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders, net of income taxes — — (50) (Loss)/gain on disposal of discontinued business attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders, net of income taxes (2) 18 456 Net (loss)/income attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders $ (255) $ 507 $ 672 Basic earnings/(loss) per share Continuing operations $ (2.95) $ 5.31 $ 2.69 Discontinued operations (0.02) 0.19 4.11 $ (2.97) $ 5.50 $ 6.80 Diluted earnings/(loss) per share Continuing operations $ (2.95) $ 5.29 $ 2.68 Discontinued operations (0.02) 0.19 4.09 $ (2.97) $ 5.48 $ 6.77 Basic weighted average shares outstanding 86.1 92.1 98.9 Stock-settled appreciation rights (“SSARs”), RSUs (a) and PSUs (b) — 0.3 0.3 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding (c)(d) 86.1 92.4 99.2 Dividends: Cash dividends per share (e) $ 1.60 $ 1.80 $ 1.89 Aggregate dividends paid to shareholders $ 138 $ 166 $ 194 (a) Excludes 1.1 million, 0.4 million, and 0.5 million of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that would have been anti-dilutive to EPS for the years 2020, 2019, and 2018, of which 0.2 million would have been dilutive during 2020 had the Company not been in a net loss position. These shares could potentially dilute EPS in the future. (b) Excludes performance-vested restricted stock units (“PSUs”) of 0.3 million and 0.2 million for the years 2020 and 2019, as the Company had not met the required performance metrics. As a result of the Spin-off during the second quarter of 2018, the Company accelerated the vesting of outstanding PSUs and there were no outstanding PSUs as of December 31, 2018. (c) Excludes 2.1 million, 1.2 million, and 0.5 million of outstanding stock option awards that would have been anti-dilutive to EPS for the years 2020, 2019, and 2018. These outstanding stock option awards could potentially dilute EPS in the future. (d) The dilutive impact of the Company’s potential common stock is computed utilizing the treasury stock method using average market prices during the period. (e) For each of the quarterly periods ended March 31, and June 30, 2020, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.50 per share and in the quarterly periods ended September 30, and December 31, 2020, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.30 per share. For each of the quarterly periods in 2019, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.45 per share. For the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018, Wyndham Worldwide Corporation paid cash dividends of $0.66 prior to the Spin-off. In each of the following periods ended June 30, September 30, and December 31, 2018, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.41. Share Repurchase Program As of December 31, 2020, the total authorization under the Company’s current share repurchase program was $6.0 billion, of which $351 million remains available. Proceeds received from stock option exercises have increased the repurchase capacity by $78 million since the inception of this program. In March 2020, the Company suspended its share repurchase activity due to the uncertainty resulting from COVID-19. On July 15, 2020, the Company amended the credit agreement for its revolving credit facility and term loan B. Among other changes, the amendment places the Company into a relief period from July 15, 2020 through April 1, 2022 (“Relief Period”) that prohibits the use of cash for share repurchases until such time as the Company chooses to exercise its option to exit the amendment. The following table summarizes stock repurchase activity under the current share repurchase program (in millions): Shares Cost As of December 31, 2019 108.2 $ 5,602 Repurchases 3.1 125 As of December 31, 2020 111.3 $ 5,727 |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Acquistions | Acquisitions Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition dates based upon their estimated fair values at such dates. The results of operations of businesses acquired by the Company have been included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income since their respective dates of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. In certain circumstances, the allocations of the excess purchase price are based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, the allocations may be subject to revision when the Company receives final information, including appraisals and other analyses. Any revisions to the fair values during the measurement period will be recorded by the Company as further adjustments to the purchase price allocations. Although, in certain circumstances, the Company has substantially integrated the operations of its acquired businesses, additional future costs relating to such integration may occur. These costs may result from integrating operating systems, relocating employees, closing facilities, reducing duplicative efforts, and exiting and consolidating other activities. These costs will be recorded on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income as expenses. 2019 ACQUISITIONS Alliance Reservations Network. On August 7, 2019, the Company acquired all of the equity of ARN. ARN provides private-label travel booking technology solutions. This acquisition was undertaken for the purpose of accelerating growth at Travel and Membership by increasing the offerings available to its members and affiliates. ARN was acquired for $102 million ($97 million net of cash acquired). The fair value of purchase consideration was comprised of: (i) $48 million delivered at closing; (ii) Travel + Leisure stock valued at $10 million (253,350 shares at $39.29 per share) delivered at closing; (iii) $21 million to be paid over 24 months post-closing ($11 million of which was paid on August 7, 2020); (iv) $10 million of contingent consideration based on achieving certain financial and operational metrics; and (v) additional shares of Travel + Leisure stock valued at $14 million (468,100 shares at $28.84 per share) delivered on August 7, 2020. The Company recognized the assets and liabilities of ARN based on estimates of their acquisition date fair values. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including goodwill and other intangible assets, requires significant judgment. The purchase price allocation, including the impacts of certain post-closing adjustments, consists of: (i) $27 million of developed software with a weighted average life of 10 years included within Property and equipment, net; (ii) $38 million of Goodwill; (iii) $35 million of definite-lived intangible assets with a weighted average life of 12 years primarily consisting of customer relationships; and (iv) $4 million of Accounts payable. All of the goodwill and other intangible assets are deductible for income tax purposes. ARN is reported within the Travel and Membership segment. The Company completed purchase accounting for this transaction during the third quarter of 2020. The details above reflect the following final purchase accounting adjustments: $7 million increase in developed software and $7 million decrease in Goodwill. Given the impact of COVID-19 on the industry, the Company performed assessments of the goodwill acquired as part of the ARN acquisition at each interim period in 2020, including the annual assessment on October 1, 2020, and concluded at each assessment that the goodwill of ARN was not impaired. For the assessment performed on October 1, 2020, it was determined that the fair value exceeded the carrying amount by approximately 20%. Although the Company has determined that the goodwill of ARN is not impaired at this time, to the extent estimated discounted cash flows are revised downward, whether as a result of continued and worsening COVID-19 impacts or if management’s current negotiations to expand ARN programs both internally and externally do not materialize as expected, the Company may be required to write-down all or a portion of this goodwill, which would negatively impact earnings. As a result of the impacts of COVID-19, the Company also performed impairment analysis of ARN’s property and equipment and other intangible assets during each quarter of 2020, including the fourth quarter as part of its annual impairment analysis on October 1, 2020, and determined in all periods that it is more likely than not that these assets were not impaired. Other . During the third quarter of 2019, the Company completed a business acquisition at its Vacation Ownership segment for $13 million ($10 million net of cash acquired). The acquisition resulted in the recognition of (i) $4 million of Inventory, (ii) $7 million of definite-lived intangible assets, and (iii) $1 million of Accrued expenses and other liabilities. 2018 ACQUISITIONS La Quinta Holdings Inc. (“La Quinta”). In January 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with La Quinta to acquire its hotel franchising and management businesses for $1.95 billion. This acquisition closed on May 30, 2018, prior to the hotel business Spin-off on May 31, 2018. Upon completion of the Spin-off, La Quinta became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Wyndham Hotels. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Discontinued Operations During 2018, the Company completed the Spin-off of its hotel business and the sale of its European vacation rentals business. As a result, the Company has classified the results of operations for these businesses as discontinued operations in its Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes. Discontinued operations include direct expenses clearly identifiable to the businesses being discontinued. The sale of the European vacation rentals business resulted in final net proceeds of $1.06 billion and a 2018 after-tax gain of $456 million, net of $139 million in taxes. During 2020, the Company recognized a $2 million loss on disposal resulting from a tax audit related to the European vacation rentals business. During 2019, the Company recognized an additional $18 million gain on disposal of discontinued operations. This gain was related to $12 million of tax benefits associated with additional foreign tax credit utilization and lower than anticipated state income taxes, as well as $6 million in returned escrow for an expired guarantee and other changes in expired guarantees related to the sale of the European vacation rentals business. The Company does not expect to incur significant ongoing expenses classified as discontinued operations except for certain tax adjustments that may be required as final tax returns are completed. Discontinued operations exclude the allocation of corporate overhead and interest. Prior to their classification as discontinued operations, the hotel business comprised the Hotel Group segment and the European vacation rentals business was part of the Travel and Membership segment.

Goodwill The Company performed a qualitative analysis for each of its reporting units for each quarter of 2020, including its annual fourth quarter analysis as of October 1, 2020. Additionally, the Company performed quantitative assessments of the goodwill acquired as part of the ARN acquisition during the third and fourth quarters of 2020 which resulted in the fair value exceeding the carrying value. For the quantitative assessment performed in the fourth quarter as part of the Company’s annual impairment analysis on October 1, 2020, it was determined that the fair value of the ARN goodwill exceeded the carrying amount by approximately 20%. Based on the results of these qualitative and quantitative assessments, the Company determined that ARN’s goodwill is not impaired and that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired at the Company’s other reporting units. During the fourth quarters of 2019 and 2018, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test and determined no impairment existed as the fair value of goodwill at its reporting units was in excess of the carrying value.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was established to provide emergency assistance and health care for individuals, families, and businesses affected by COVID-19 and generally support the U.S. economy. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations, and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The Company recorded $26 million of employee retention tax credits for the year ended December 31, 2020, including credits from similar programs outside the U.S. This provision of the CARES Act has no additional requirements or restrictions. The Company has deferred social security payments and additional depreciation deductions relating to qualified improvement property. While the Company continues to review and consider any additional available benefits under the CARES Act or similar legislation that has been or in the future may be enacted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic for which it qualifies, the Company cannot predict the manner in which such benefits will be allocated or administered and cannot assure that it will be able to receive such benefits in a timely manner or at all. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which is also commonly referred to as ‘‘U.S. tax reform,’’ and significantly changed U.S. corporate income tax laws by reducing the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 35.0% to 21.0% starting in 2018, and imposing a one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax on undistributed historic earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Other provisions of the law include, but are not limited to, creating a territorial tax system which generally eliminates U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, eliminating or limiting the deduction of certain expenses, and imposing a minimum tax on earnings generated by foreign subsidiaries. The Company made a reasonable estimate for the impact of U.S. tax reform on December 31, 2017, and finalized the accounting for the tax effects of U.S. tax reform in 2018. The following table presents the impact of the accounting for the enactment of U.S. tax reform on the Company’s benefit/provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2018 (in millions). T here were no such amounts for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. 2018 Remeasurement of net deferred income tax and uncertain tax liabilities $ (24) One-time mandatory repatriation tax on undistributed historic earnings of foreign subsidiaries 8 Valuation allowance established for the impact of the law on certain tax attributes (13) Net (benefit) for income taxes impact $ (29) Although the one-time mandatory deemed repatriation tax during 2017 and the territorial tax system created as a result of U.S. tax reform generally eliminate U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, the Company asserts that substantially all of the undistributed foreign earnings of $805 million will be reinvested indefinitely as of December 31, 2020. In the event the Company determines not to continue to assert that all or part of its undistributed foreign earnings are permanently reinvested, such a determination in the future could result in the accrual and payment of additional foreign withholding taxes, as well as U.S. taxes on currency transaction gains and losses, the determination of which is not practicable. The income tax provision consisted of the following for the years ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Current Federal $ 42 $ 74 $ (24) State 12 9 (6) Foreign 11 29 38 65 112 8 Deferred Federal (82) 57 77 State (3) 17 44 Foreign (3) 5 1 (88) 79 122 (Benefit)/provision for income taxes $ (23) $ 191 $ 130 Pre-tax (loss)/income for domestic and foreign operations consisted of the following for the years ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Domestic $ (326) $ 452 $ 258 Foreign 50 228 138 (Loss)/income before income taxes $ (276) $ 680 $ 396 Deferred income tax assets and liabilities, as of December 31, were comprised of the following (in millions): 2020 2019 Deferred income tax assets: Net operating loss carryforward $ 37 $ 33 Foreign tax credit carryforward 75 78 Tax basis differences in assets of foreign subsidiaries 12 12 Accrued liabilities and deferred income 80 49 Provision for doubtful accounts and loan loss reserves for vacation ownership contract receivables 227 229 Other comprehensive income 69 64 Other 92 82 Valuation allowance (a) (153) (133) Deferred income tax assets 439 414 Deferred income tax liabilities: Depreciation and amortization 228 189 Installment sales of vacation ownership interests 780 876 Estimated VOI recoveries 60 68 Other comprehensive income 49 47 Other 20 23 Deferred income tax liabilities 1,137 1,203 Net deferred income tax liabilities $ 698 $ 789 Reported in: Other assets $ 27 $ 26 Deferred income taxes 725 815 Net deferred income tax liabilities $ 698 $ 789 (a) The valuation allowance of $153 million at December 31, 2020, relates to foreign tax credits, net operating loss carryforwards, and certain deferred tax assets of $50 million, $22 million, and $81 million. The valuation allowance of $133 million at December 31, 2019, relates to foreign tax credits, net operating loss carryforwards, and certain deferred tax assets of $35 million, $21 million, and $77 million. The valuation allowance will be reduced when and if the Company determines it is more likely than not that the related deferred income tax assets will be realized. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards primarily relate to state net operating losses which are due to expire at various dates, but no later than 2040. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $75 million of foreign tax credits. These foreign tax credits expire between 2021 and 2030. The Company’s effective income tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate as follows for the years ended December 31: 2020 2019 2018 Federal statutory rate 21.0% 21.0% 21.0% State and local income taxes, net of federal tax benefits (0.9) 6.8 1.7 Taxes on foreign operations at rates different than U.S. federal statutory rates (0.9) 1.4 2.1 Taxes on foreign income, net of tax credits 0.2 0.4 2.7 Valuation allowance (7.1) (2.4) 10.8 Non-deductible expenses (1.6) — — Impact of U.S. tax reform — — (5.5) Other (2.4) 0.9 — 8.3% 28.1% 32.8% The effective income tax rate for 2020 differed from the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to net increases in valuation allowances on the Company’s deferred tax assets. The effective income tax rate for 2019 differed from the statutory U.S. Federal income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes, which were mainly related to additional taxes resulting from 2019 state legislative changes retroactively applicable to 2018 tax filings. The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ 29 $ 28 $ 28 Increases related to tax positions taken during a prior period — 1 1 Increases related to tax positions taken during the current period 2 4 4 Decreases related to settlements with taxing authorities — (1) — Decreases as a result of a lapse of the applicable statute of limitations (3) (2) (2) Decreases related to tax positions taken during a prior period (2) (1) (3) Ending balance $ 26 $ 29 $ 28 The gross amount of the unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective tax rate was $26 million, $29 million, and $28 million as of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018. The Company accrued potential penalties and interest as a component of (Benefit from)/provision for income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income related to these unrecognized tax benefits of $1 million, $2 million, and $1 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The Company had a liability for potential penalties of $4 million as of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, and potential interest of $10 million, $9 million, and $7 million as of December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018. Such liabilities are reported as a component of Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company does not expect the unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over the next 12 months. The Company files U.S. federal and state, and foreign income tax returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The Company is currently under a U.S. federal exam for the 2016 tax year and generally remains subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for tax years 2017 through 2020. The 2011 through 2020 tax years generally remain subject to examination by many U.S. state tax authorities. In significant foreign jurisdictions, the 2013 through 2020 tax years generally remain subject to examination by their respective tax authorities. The statutes of limitations are scheduled to expire within 12 months of the reporting date in certain taxing jurisdictions, and the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of its unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $3 million to $5 million. |

During 2020, 2019, and 2018, the Company originated VOCRs of $481 million, $1.5 billion, and $1.51 billion and received principal collections of $718 million, $937 million, and $890 million. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding VOCRs was 14.4%, 14.4%, and 14.1% during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The activity in the allowance for loan losses on VOCRs was as follows (in millions): Amount Allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2017 $ 691 Provision for loan losses 456 Contract receivables written off, net (413) Allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2018 734 Provision for loan losses 479 Contract receivables write-offs, net (466) Allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2019 747 Provision for loan losses 415 Contract receivables write-offs, net (469) Allowance for loan losses as of December 31, 2020 $ 693 The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $415 million as a reduction of net revenues during the year ended December 31, 2020, and $479 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Due to the economic downturn resulting from COVID-19, the Company evaluated the potential impact of COVID-19 on its owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables and as a result of current and projected unemployment rates at that time, the Company increased its loan loss allowance in the first quarter of 2020. This was reflected as a $225 million reduction to Vacation ownership interest sales and a $55 million reduction to Cost of vacation ownership interests on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company updated its evaluation of the impact of COVID-19 on its owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables and, as a result of an improvement in net new defaults and lower than expected unemployment rates, reduced the reserve by $20 million with a corresponding $7 million change in Cost of vacation ownership interests. The total impact of COVID-19 on the ability for owners’ to repay their contracts receivables for the year ended December 31, 2020, is reflected as a $205 million reduction to Vacation ownership interest sales and a $48 million reduction to Cost of vacation ownership interests on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Estimating the amount of the additional loan loss allowance for COVID-19 involved the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Management based its estimates upon historical data on the relationship between unemployment rates and net new defaults observed during the most recent recession in 2008. Specifically, historical data indicated that net new defaults did not return to prior levels until 15-20 months after the peak in unemployment. As of December 31, 2020, given the significant amount of government assistance provided to consumers in the early stages of the pandemic, the Company estimated default rates would remain elevated for the next 12-15 months as a result of COVID-19. The Company will continue to monitor this reserve as more information becomes available. Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses The basis of the differentiation within the identified class of financed VOI contract receivables is the consumer’s Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score. A FICO score is a branded version of a consumer credit score widely used within the U.S. by the largest banks and lending institutions. FICO scores range from 300 to 850 and are calculated based on information obtained from one or more of the three major U.S. credit reporting agencies that compile and report on a consumer’s credit history. The Company updates its records for all active VOI contract receivables with a balance due on a rolling monthly basis to ensure that all VOI contract receivables are scored at least every six months. The Company groups all VOI contract receivables into five different categories: FICO scores ranging from 700 to 850, from 600 to 699, below 600, no score (primarily comprised of consumers for whom a score is not readily available, including consumers declining access to FICO scores and non-U.S. residents), and Asia Pacific (comprised of receivables in the Company’s Vacation Ownership Asia Pacific business for which scores are not readily available). The following table details an aging analysis of financing receivables using the most recently updated FICO scores, based on the policy described above (in millions): As of December 31, 2020 700+ 600-699 <600 No Score Asia Pacific Total Current $ 1,706 $ 835 $ 160 $ 96 $ 221 $ 3,018 31 - 60 days 20 25 13 4 2 64 61 - 90 days 13 18 12 3 1 47 91 - 120 days 12 16 14 3 1 46 Total (a) $ 1,751 $ 894 $ 199 $ 106 $ 225 $ 3,175 As of December 31, 2019 700+ 600-699 <600 No Score Asia Pacific Total Current $ 2,019 $ 1,049 $ 196 $ 134 $ 250 $ 3,648 31 - 60 days 25 37 21 5 2 90 61 - 90 days 18 28 17 3 1 67 91 - 120 days 13 21 24 3 1 62 Total (a) $ 2,075 $ 1,135 $ 258 $ 145 $ 254 $ 3,867 (a) Includes contracts under temporary deferment (up to 180 days). As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, contracts under deferment total $37 million and $8 million. The Company ceases to accrue interest on VOI contract receivables once the contract has remained delinquent for greater than 90 days and reverses all of the associated accrued interest recognized to date against interest income included within Consumer financing revenue on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. At greater than 120 days, the VOI contract receivable is written off to the allowance for loan losses. In accordance with its policy, the Company assesses the allowance for loan losses using a static pool methodology and thus does not assess individual loans for impairment separate from the pool. The following table details the year of origination of financing receivables using the most recently updated FICO scores, based on the policy described above (in millions): As of December 31, 2020 700+ 600-699 <600 No Score Asia Pacific Total 2020 $ 424 $ 173 $ 11 $ 17 $ 55 $ 680 2019 476 269 67 27 70 909 2018 339 183 50 21 36 629 2017 220 115 31 16 22 404 2016 128 63 16 10 16 233 Prior 164 91 24 15 26 320 Total $ 1,751 $ 894 $ 199 $ 106 $ 225 $ 3,175 As of December 31, 2019 700+ 600-699 <600 No Score Asia Pacific Total 2019 $ 866 $ 454 $ 54 $ 53 $ 119 $ 1,546 2018 486 285 80 32 49 932 2017 303 166 51 23 29 572 2016 173 89 29 14 20 325 2015 99 56 17 9 14 195 Prior 148 85 27 14 23 297 Total $ 2,075 $ 1,135 $ 258 $ 145 $ 254 $ 3,867 |

The write-off was included within Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company anticipates that remaining inventory will be fully utilized to maximize exchange supply for its members in 2021 and beyond. Inventory Sale Transactions During 2020, the Company acquired properties in Orlando, Florida, and Moab, Utah, from third-party developers for vacation ownership inventory and property and equipment. During 2017, the Company acquired property located in Austin, Texas, from a third-party developer for vacation ownership inventory and property and equipment. During 2013, the Company sold real property located in Las Vegas, Nevada, and Avon, Colorado, to a third-party developer, consisting of vacation ownership inventory and property and equipment. The Company recognized no gain or loss on these sales transactions.

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases of Lessee Disclosure [Text Block] | Leases The Company adopted the new Leases accounting standard as of January 1, 2019, resulting in the recognition of $158 million of right-of-use assets and $200 million of related lease liabilities. Right-of-use assets were decreased by $42 million of tenant improvement allowances and deferred rent balances reclassified from other liabilities. Both the right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities recognized upon adoption included $21 million associated with the Company’s held-for-sale business. The new standard requires a lessee to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all lease obligations and disclose key information about leasing arrangements, such as the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach; therefore, prior year financial statements were not recast. The Company elected the package of transition provisions available for expired or existing contracts, which allowed the Company to carryforward its historical assessments of (i) whether contracts are leases or contain leases, (ii) lease classification, and (iii) initial direct costs. The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases for its corporate headquarters, administrative functions, marketing and sales offices, and various other facilities and equipment. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Many of its leases include rental escalation clauses, lease incentives, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into the Company’s determination of lease payments. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. The Company also made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the statements of (loss)/income. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of its leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must estimate its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The majority of the Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one The table below presents information related to the lease costs for finance and operating leases for the year ended December 31, (in millions): 2020 2019 Operating lease cost $ 30 $ 37 Short-term lease cost $ 14 $ 23 Finance lease cost: Amortization of right-of-use assets $ 3 $ 2 Interest on lease liabilities — — Total finance lease cost $ 3 $ 2 The table below presents the lease-related assets and liabilities recorded on the balance sheet: Balance Sheet Classification December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Operating Leases (in millions): Operating lease right-of-use assets Other assets $ 92 $ 136 Operating lease liabilities Accrued expenses and other liabilities $ 157 $ 180 Finance Leases (in millions): Finance lease assets (a) Property and equipment, net $ 8 $ 5 Finance lease liabilities Debt $ 7 $ 5 Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term: Operating leases 7.1 years 7.8 years Finance leases 2.6 years 2.8 years Weighted Average Discount Rate: Operating leases (b) 5.9 % 6.2 % Finance leases 5.6 % 4.2 % (a) Presented net of accumulated depreciation.

As a result, during 2019 the Company recorded $12 million of non-cash impairment charges associated with the write-off of right-of-use assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment. During 2019, the Company also entered into an early termination agreement for an operating lease in Chicago, Illinois, resulting in $6 million of non-cash impairment charges associated with the write-off of right-of-use assets, related lease liabilities, and furniture, fixtures and equipment. These charges were offset by a $9 million indemnification receivable from Wyndham Hotels. Such amounts are included within Separation and related costs on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Due to the impact of COVID-19 during 2020, the Company decided to abandon the remaining portion of its administrative offices in New Jersey. The Company was also notified that Wyndham Hotels exercised its early termination rights under the sublease agreement for this building. As a result, the Company recorded $22 million of restructuring charges associated with non-lease components of the office space and $24 million of impairment charges associated with the write-off of right-of-use assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment. Additionally during 2020, the Company incurred $5 million of impairment charges related to right-of-use assets at closed sales centers within its Vacation Ownership segment, and $1 million of restructuring charges at each of the Vacation Ownership and corporate segments related to right-of-use assets at its corporate headquarters. |

As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s non-recourse vacation ownership debt of $2.23 billion was collateralized by $2.57 billion of underlying gross VOCRs and related assets. Additional usage of the capacity of the Company’s non-recourse bank conduit facilities are subject to the Company’s ability to provide additional assets to collateralize such facilities. The combined weighted average interest rate on the Company’s total non-recourse vacation ownership debt was 4.2%, 4.4%, and 4.2% during 2020, 2019, and 2018. Debt $1.0 billion Revolving Credit Facility and $300 million Term Loan B. In 2018, the Company entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and collateral agent. The agreement provides for new senior secured credit facilities in the amount of $1.3 billion, consisting of secured term loan B of $300 million maturing in 2025 and a new secured revolving facility of $1.0 billion maturing in 2023. The interest rate per annum applicable to term loan B is equal to, at the Company’s option, either a base rate plus a margin of 1.25% or LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25%. The interest rate per annum applicable to borrowings under the revolving credit facility prior to and after the Relief Period terminates (as per the credit agreement amendment) is equal to, at the Company’s option, either a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.75% to 1.25% or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25%, however, during the Relief Period, the margin ranges are 0.75% to 1.75% for base rates and 1.75% to 2.75% for LIBOR based rates. The LIBOR rate with respect to either term loan B or the revolving credit facility borrowings are subject to a “floor” of 0.00%. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s interest rate per annum applicable to term loan B and borrowings under the revolving credit facility was the applicable LIBOR based rate plus a margin of 2.25%. In connection with this credit agreement, the Company entered into a security agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as collateral agent, as defined in the security agreement, for the secured parties. The security agreement granted a security interest in the collateral of the Company and added the holders of Travel + Leisure’s outstanding 7.375% notes due 2020, 5.625% notes due 2021, 4.25% notes due 2022, 3.90% notes due 2023, 5.65% notes due 2024, 6.60% notes due 2025, and 6.00% notes due 2027, as “secured parties,” as defined in the security agreement, that share equally and ratably in the collateral owned by the Company for so long as indebtedness under the credit agreement is secured by such collateral. The interest rates on the aforementioned notes reflect increases resulting from rating agency downgrades of the Company’s corporate notes. Pursuant to the terms of the indentures governing such series of notes, the interest rate on each such series of notes may be subject to future increases or decreases, as a result of future downgrades or upgrades to the credit ratings of such notes by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services (“S&P”), Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), or a substitute rating agency. Since issuance the interest rates on these notes have increased 150 basis points as of December 31, 2020, with a maximum potential for additional increase of 50 basis points. Secured Notes. On July 24, 2020, the Company issued secured notes, with a face value of $650 million and an interest rate of 6.625%, for net proceeds of $643 million. Debt discount and deferred financing costs were collectively $9 million, which will be amortized over the life of the notes. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on the notes. The notes will mature on July 31, 2026, and are redeemable at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the principal being redeemed, and (ii) a “make-whole” price specified in the Indenture and the notes, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of outstanding indebtedness under its secured revolving credit facility, the future repayment of the Company’s 5.625% secured notes due March 2021 and the payment of related fees and expenses. In the third quarter, the Company used a portion of the secured notes proceeds to repay $350 million of its indebtedness under the secured revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $2.7 billion of outstanding secured notes issued prior to December 31, 2019. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on the notes. The notes are redeemable at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) the sum of the principal being redeemed, and (ii) a “make-whole” price specified in the Indenture of the notes, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest. These notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s other secured indebtedness. Deferred Financing Costs The Company classifies debt issuance costs related to its revolving credit facilities and the bank conduit facilities within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such costs were $11 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Fair Value Hedges During 2017, the Company entered into pay-variable/receive-fixed interest rate swap agreements on its 6.00% secured notes with notional amounts of $400 million. The fixed interest rates on these notes were effectively modified to a variable LIBOR-based index. During 2019, the Company terminated these swap agreements resulting in a gain of $13 million which will be amortized over the remaining life of the secured notes as a reduction to Interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company had $11 million and $13 million of deferred gains associated with this transaction as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, which are included within Debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During 2013, the Company entered into pay-variable/receive-fixed interest rate swap agreements on its 3.90% and 4.25% senior unsecured notes with notional amounts of $400 million and $100 million. The fixed interest rates on these notes were effectively modified to a variable LIBOR-based index. During May 2015, the Company terminated the swap agreements resulting in a gain of $17 million, which is being amortized over the remaining life of the senior unsecured notes as a reduction to Interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company had $4 million and $6 million of deferred gains as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, which are included within Debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Debt Covenants The revolving credit facilities and term loan B are subject to covenants including the maintenance of specific financial ratios as defined in the credit agreement. The financial ratio covenants consist of a minimum interest coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0 as of the measurement date and a maximum first lien leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1.0 as of the measurement date. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) by consolidated interest expense (as defined in the credit agreement), both as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. The first lien leverage ratio is calculated by dividing consolidated first lien debt (as defined in the credit agreement) as of the measurement date by consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) as measured on a trailing 12-month basis preceding the measurement date. On July 15, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the Company’s credit agreement (“Credit Agreement Amendment”). The Credit Agreement Amendment established a relief period with respect to the Company’s secured revolving credit facility, which commenced on July 15, 2020, and will end on April 1, 2022, or upon termination by the Company of the relief period, subject to certain conditions. The Credit Agreement Amendment increased the existing leverage-based financial covenant of 4.25 to 1.0 by varying levels for each applicable quarter during the Relief Period. As of December 31, 2020, the Credit Agreement Amendment increased the maximum first lien leverage ratio to 7.50 to 1.0. Following the Relief Period, the Credit Agreement Amendment reestablishes the existing leverage-based financial covenant of 4.25 to 1.0, tested on the basis of trailing 12-month consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement). In addition, the Credit Agreement Amendment, among other things, increased the interest rate applicable to borrowings under the Company’s secured revolving credit facility based on the Company’s first lien leverage ratio in any quarter it exceeds 4.25 to 1.0, until the end of the Relief Period; added a new minimum liquidity covenant, tested quarterly until the end of the Relief Period, of (i) $250 million plus (ii) 50% of the aggregate amount of dividends paid after the effective date of the Credit Agreement Amendment, and on or prior to the last day of the relevant fiscal quarter; and requires the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain an interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 2.00 to 1.0, which shall increase to 2.50 to 1.0 after the Relief Period, the level existing prior to the effective date of the Credit Agreement Amendment. Finally, the Credit Agreement Amendment amends the definition of “Material Adverse Effect” in the credit agreement to take into consideration the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic during the Relief Period, to the extent disclosed prior to July 15, 2020, in the Company’s public filings and certain other specified materials. The Relief Period includes certain restrictions on the use of cash including the prohibition of share repurchases until such time as the Company chooses to exercise its option to exit the amendment. Additionally, the amendment limits the payout of dividends during the Relief Period to not exceed $0.50 per share, the rate in effect prior to the amendment. The Company has the option to terminate the Relief Period at any time it can demonstrate compliance with the 4.25 to 1.0 first lien leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s interest coverage ratio was 3.0 to 1.0 and the first lien leverage ratio was 5.4 to 1.0. These ratios do not include interest expense or indebtedness related to any qualified securitization financing (as defined in the credit agreement). As of December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants described above. Under the Credit Agreement Amendment, if the first lien leverage ratio exceeds 4.25 to 1.0, the interest rate on revolver borrowings would increase, and the Company would be subject to higher fees associated with its letters of credit. Given the first lien leverage ratio at December 31, 2020, the interest rate on the revolver borrowings will increase 25 basis points effective March 1, 2021. This interest rate is subject to future changes based on the Company’s first lien ratio which could serve to further increase the rate up to an additional 25 basis points, or reduce this rate. Each of the Company’s non-recourse securitized term notes, and the bank conduit facilities contain various triggers relating to the performance of the applicable loan pools. If the VOCR pool that collateralizes one of the Company’s securitization notes fails to perform within the parameters established by the contractual triggers (such as higher default or delinquency rates), there are provisions pursuant to which the cash flows for that pool will be maintained in the securitization as extra collateral for the note holders or applied to accelerate the repayment of outstanding principal to the note holders. As of December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s securitized loan pools were in compliance with applicable contractual triggers. Interest Expense The Company incurred interest expense of $192 million during 2020. Such amount consisted primarily of interest on debt, excluding non-recourse vacation ownership debt, and included an offset of $1 million of capitalized interest. Cash paid related to such interest was $163 million. The Company incurred interest expense of $162 million during 2019. Such amount consisted primarily of interest on debt, excluding non-recourse vacation ownership debt, and included an offset of $3 million of capitalized interest. Cash paid related to such interest was $158 million. The Company incurred interest expense of $170 million during 2018. Such amount consisted primarily of interest on debt, excluding non-recourse vacation ownership debt, and included an offset of $2 million of capitalized interest. Cash paid related to such interest was $159 million. Interest expense incurred in connection with the Company’s non-recourse vacation ownership debt was $101 million, $106 million, and $88 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018, and is reported within Consumer financing interest on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Cash paid related to such interest was $74 million, $81 million, and $58 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. |

Variable Interest Entity, Primary Beneficiary, Does Not Hold Majority Voting Interest, Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Variable Interest Entities | Variable Interest Entities In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of a VIE, the Company analyzes its variable interests, including loans, guarantees, SPEs, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which the Company has a variable interest is a VIE. If the entity is considered to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be considered the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates into its financial statements those VIEs for which it has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables Securitizations The Company pools qualifying VOCRs and sells them to bankruptcy-remote entities. VOCRs qualify for securitization based primarily on the credit strength of the VOI purchaser to whom financing has been extended. VOCRs are securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs that are consolidated within the Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, the Company does not recognize gains or losses resulting from these securitizations at the time of sale to the SPEs. Interest income is recognized when earned over the contractual life of the VOCRs. The Company services the securitized VOCRs pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis based on market conditions. The activities of these SPEs are limited to (i) purchasing VOCRs from the Company’s vacation ownership subsidiaries, (ii) issuing debt securities and/or borrowing under a conduit facility to fund such purchases, and (iii) entering into derivatives to hedge interest rate exposure. The bankruptcy-remote SPEs are legally separate from the Company. The receivables held by the bankruptcy-remote SPEs are not available to creditors of the Company and legally are not assets of the Company. Additionally, the non-recourse debt that is securitized through the SPEs is legally not a liability of the Company and thus, the creditors of these SPEs have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest. The assets and liabilities of these vacation ownership SPEs are as follows (in millions): December 31, December 31, Securitized contract receivables, gross (a) $ 2,458 $ 2,984 Securitized restricted cash (b) 92 110 Interest receivables on securitized contract receivables (c) 23 25 Other assets (d) 5 4 Total SPE assets 2,578 3,123 Non-recourse term notes (e)(f) 1,893 1,969 Non-recourse conduit facilities (e) 341 572 Other liabilities (g) 2 4 Total SPE liabilities 2,236 2,545 SPE assets in excess of SPE liabilities $ 342 $ 578 (a) Included in Vacation ownership contract receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (b) Included in Restricted cash on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (c) Included in Trade receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (d) Primarily includes deferred financing costs for the bank conduit facility and a security investment asset, which is included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (e) Included in Non-recourse vacation ownership debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (f) Includes deferred financing costs of $21 million and $23 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, related to non-recourse debt. (g) Primarily includes accrued interest on non-recourse debt, which is included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company has VOCRs that have not been securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs. Such gross receivables were $717 million and $883 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. A summary of total vacation ownership receivables and other securitized assets, net of securitized liabilities and the allowance for loan losses, is as follows (in millions): December 31, December 31, SPE assets in excess of SPE liabilities $ 342 $ 578 Non-securitized contract receivables 717 883 Less: Allowance for loan losses 693 747 Total, net $ 366 $ 714 Clearwater, Florida Property During 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with a third-party partner whereby the partner would develop and construct VOI inventory through an SPE. The Company is considered to be the primary beneficiary for specified assets and liabilities of the SPE and, therefore, during 2017 the Company consolidated $51 million of both its Property and equipment, net and Debt on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. During 2018, the Company made its final purchase of VOI inventory from the SPE, and the mortgage note was extinguished. Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands Property During 2015, the Company sold real property located in Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, to a third-party developer to construct VOI inventory through an SPE. In accordance with the agreements with the third-party developer, the Company has conditional rights and conditional obligations to repurchase the completed property from the developer subject to the property conforming to the Company's vacation ownership resort standards and provided that the third-party developer has not sold the property to another party. As a result of a disruption to VOI sales caused by the impact of the hurricanes on Saint Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands, in 2017, there was a change in the economics of the transaction due to a reduction in the fair value of the assets of the SPE. As such, during 2017, the Company was considered the primary beneficiary for specified assets and liabilities of the SPE, and therefore consolidated $64 million of Property and equipment, net and $104 million of Debt on its Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of this consolidation, the Company incurred a non-cash $37 million loss due to the write-down |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value | Fair Value The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis and utilizes the fair value hierarchy to determine such fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories: Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value driver is observable. Level 3: Unobservable inputs used when little or no market data is available. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls has been determined based on the lowest level input (closest to Level 3) that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company’s derivative instruments currently consist of interest rate caps and foreign exchange forward contracts. See Note 19— Financial Instruments for additional details. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had foreign exchange contracts resulting in $3 million of assets which are included within Other assets and less than $1 million of liabilities which are included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. On a recurring basis, such assets and liabilities are remeasured at estimated fair value (all of which are Level 2) and thus are equal to the carrying value. The impact of interest rate caps was immaterial as of December 31, 2020. For assets and liabilities that are measured using quoted prices in active markets, the fair value is the published market price per unit multiplied by the number of units held without consideration of transaction costs. Assets and liabilities that are measured using other significant observable inputs are valued by reference to similar assets and liabilities. For these items, a significant portion of fair value is derived by reference to quoted prices of similar assets and liabilities in active markets. For assets and liabilities that are measured using significant unobservable inputs, fair value is primarily derived using a fair value model, such as a discounted cash flow model. The fair value of financial instruments is generally determined by reference to market values resulting from trading on a national securities exchange or in an over-the-counter market. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques, as appropriate. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of all other financial instruments were as follows (in millions): December 31, 2020 December 31, 2019 Carrying Estimated Fair Value Carrying Estimated Fair Value Assets Vacation ownership contract receivables, net (Level 3) $ 2,482 $ 3,035 $ 3,120 $ 3,907 Liabilities Debt (Level 2) $ 6,418 $ 6,705 $ 5,575 $ 5,709 The Company estimates the fair value of its VOCRs using a discounted cash flow model which it believes is comparable to the model that an independent third-party would use in the current market. The model uses Level 3 inputs consisting of default rates, prepayment rates, coupon rates, and loan terms for the contract receivables portfolio as key drivers of risk and relative value that, when applied in combination with pricing parameters, determines the fair value of the underlying contract receivables. The Company estimates the fair value of its non-recourse vacation ownership debt by obtaining Level 2 inputs comprised of indicative bids from investment banks that actively issue and facilitate the secondary market for timeshare securities. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt, excluding finance leases, using Level 2 inputs based on indicative bids from investment banks and determines the fair value of its secured notes using quoted market prices (such secured notes are not actively traded). |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments The designation of a derivative instrument as a hedge and its ability to meet the hedge accounting criteria determine how the change in fair value of the derivative instrument will be reflected on the Consolidated Financial Statements. A derivative qualifies for hedge accounting if, at inception, the derivative is expected to be highly effective in offsetting the underlying hedged cash flows or fair value, and the hedge documentation standards are fulfilled at the time the Company enters into the derivative contract. A hedge is designated as a cash flow hedge based on the exposure being hedged. The asset or liability value of the derivative will change in tandem with its fair value. Changes in fair value for qualifying cash flow hedges, are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”). The derivative’s gain or loss is released from AOCL to match the timing of the underlying hedged cash flows effect on earnings. A hedge is designated as a fair value hedge when the derivative is used to manage an exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability. For fair value hedges, the portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument designated as a fair value hedge will be recognized in earnings. The Company concurrently records changes in the value of the hedged asset or liability via a basis adjustment to the hedged item. These two changes in fair value offset one another in whole or in part and are reported in the same statement of income line item as the hedged risk. The Company reviews the effectiveness of its hedging instruments on an ongoing basis, recognizes current period hedge ineffectiveness immediately in earnings and discontinues hedge accounting for any hedge that it no longer considers to be highly effective. The Company recognizes changes in fair value for derivatives not designated as hedges or those not qualifying for hedge accounting in current period earnings. Upon termination of cash flow hedges, the Company releases gains and losses from AOCL based on the timing of the underlying cash flows, unless the termination results from the failure of the intended transaction to occur in the expected time frame. Such untimely transactions require the Company to immediately recognize in earnings gains and losses previously recorded in AOCL. Changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates expose the Company to market risk. The Company has used cash flow and fair value hedges as part of its overall strategy to manage its exposure to market risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. As a matter of policy, the Company only enters into transactions that it believes will be highly effective at offsetting the underlying risk and it does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. The Company uses the following derivative instruments to mitigate its foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risks: Foreign Currency Risk The Company has foreign currency rate exposure to exchange rate fluctuations worldwide with particular exposure to the euro, British pound sterling, Australian and Canadian dollars, and Mexican peso. The Company uses freestanding foreign currency forward contracts to manage a portion of its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its foreign currency denominated receivables, payables, and forecasted earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Additionally, the Company has used foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage a portion of its exposure to changes in forecasted foreign currency denominated vendor payments. The amount of gains or losses relating to contracts designated as cash flow hedges that the Company expects to reclassify from AOCL to earnings over the next 12 months is not material. Interest Rate Risk A portion of the debt used to finance the Company’s operations is exposed to interest rate fluctuations. The Company periodically uses financial derivatives to strategically adjust its mix of fixed to floating rate debt. The derivative instruments utilized include interest rate swaps which convert fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt (i.e. fair value hedges) to manage the overall interest cost. For relationships designated as fair value hedges, changes in fair value of the derivatives are recorded in income, with offsetting adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged debt. As of December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The following table summarizes information regarding the losses recognized in AOCL for the years ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Designated hedging instruments Foreign exchange contracts $ — $ — $ (1) The following table summarizes information regarding the gains recognized in income on the Company’s freestanding derivatives for the years ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Non-designated hedging instruments Foreign exchange contracts (a) $ 3 $ 1 $ 2 (a) Included within Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, which is primarily offset by changes in the value of the underlying assets and liabilities. Credit Risk and Exposure The Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to various agreements and sales transactions. The Company manages such risk by evaluating the financial position and creditworthiness of such counterparties and by requiring collateral in instances in which financing is provided. The Company mitigates counterparty credit risk associated with its derivative contracts by monitoring the amounts at risk with each counterparty to such contracts, periodically evaluating counterparty creditworthiness and financial position, and where possible, dispersing its risk among multiple counterparties. As of December 31, 2020, there were no significant concentrations of credit risk with any individual counterparty or groups of counterparties. However, 18% of the Company’s outstanding VOCRs portfolio relates to customers who reside in California. With the exception of the financing provided to customers of its vacation ownership businesses, the Company does not normally require collateral or other security to support credit sales. Market Risk The Company is subject to risks relating to the geographic concentrations of (i) areas in which the Company is currently developing and selling vacation ownership properties, (ii) sales offices in certain vacation areas, and (iii) customers of the Company’s vacation ownership business, which in each case, may result in the Company’s results of operations being more sensitive to local and regional economic conditions and other factors, including competition, natural disasters, and economic downturns, than the Company’s results of operations would be, absent such geographic concentrations. Local and regional economic conditions and other factors may differ materially from prevailing conditions in other parts of the world. Florida and Nevada are examples of areas with concentrations of sales offices. For the year ended December 31, 2020, 16% and 15% of the Company’s VOI sales revenues were generated in sales offices located in Florida and Nevada. Included within the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income are net revenues generated from transactions in the state of Florida of 18%, 19%, and 16% during 2020, 2019, and 2018. There were 12% of net revenues generated from transactions in the state of California during 2020, and 11% during 2019 and 2018. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies C OMMITMENTS Leases The Company is committed to making finance and operating lease payments covering various facilities and equipment. Total future minimum lease obligations are $200 million, including finance leases, operating leases, leases signed but not yet commenced, and leases with a lease term of less than 12 months. See Note 13— Leases for additional detail. Purchase Commitments In the normal course of business, the Company makes various commitments to purchase goods or services from specific suppliers, including those related to vacation ownership resort development and other capital expenditures. Purchase commitments made by the Company as of December 31, 2020, aggregated to $973 million, of which $714 million were for marketing-related activities, $143 million were related to the development of vacation ownership properties, and $31 million were for information technology activities. Commitments for marketing related activities decreased $317 million from 2019 to 2020, primarily related to renegotiated and exited contracts as a result of COVID-19. Inventory Sold Subject to Conditional Repurchase In the normal course of business, the Company makes various commitments to repurchase completed vacation ownership properties from third-party developers. Inventory sold subject to conditional repurchase made by the Company as of December 31, 2020, aggregated to $59 million. See Note 11— Inventory for additional detail. Letters of Credit As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $127 million of irrevocable standby letters of credit outstanding, of which $96 million were under its revolving credit facilities. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $60 million of irrevocable standby letters of credit outstanding, of which $17 million were under its revolving credit facilities. Such letters of credit issued during 2020 includes a $48 million letter of credit for guarantees related to the sale of the European vacation rentals business in which Wyndham Hotels and Travel + Leisure are required to maintain certain credit ratings, see Note 29— Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries for additional details. The letters of credit issued during 2020 and 2019 also supported the securitization of VOCR fundings, certain insurance policies, and development activity at the Company’s Vacation Ownership segment. Surety Bonds A portion of the Company’s vacation ownership sales and developments are supported by surety bonds provided by affiliates of certain insurance companies in order to meet regulatory requirements of certain states. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, it has assembled commitments from 12 surety providers in the amount of $2.3 billion, of which the Company had $261 million outstanding as of December 31, 2020. The availability, terms and conditions, and pricing of bonding capacity are dependent on, among other things, continued financial strength and stability of the insurance company affiliates providing the bonding capacity, general availability of such capacity and the Company’s corporate credit rating. If the bonding capacity is unavailable or, alternatively, the terms and conditions and pricing of the bonding capacity are unacceptable to the Company, its vacation ownership business could be negatively impacted. L ITIGATION The Company is involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries related to its business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. Travel + Leisure Litigation The Company may be from time to time involved in claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and governmental inquiries arising in the ordinary course of its business including but not limited to: for its Vacation Ownership business — breach of contract, bad faith, conflict of interest, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims by property owners’ associations, owners and prospective owners in connection with the sale or use of VOIs or land, or the management of vacation ownership resorts, construction defect claims relating to vacation ownership units or resorts or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; and negligence, breach of contract, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims by guests and other consumers for alleged injuries sustained at or acts or occurrences related to vacation ownership units or resorts or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; for its Travel and Membership business — breach of contract, fraud and bad faith claims by affiliates and customers in connection with their respective agreements, negligence, breach of contract, fraud, consumer protection and other statutory claims asserted by members, guests and other consumers for alleged injuries sustained at or acts or occurrences related to affiliated resorts, or in relation to guest reservations and bookings; and for each of its businesses, bankruptcy proceedings involving efforts to collect receivables from a debtor in bankruptcy, employment matters including but not limited to, claims of wrongful termination, retaliation, discrimination, harassment and wage and hour claims, whistleblower claims, claims of infringement upon third parties’ intellectual property rights, claims relating to information security, privacy and consumer protection, fiduciary duty/trust claims, tax claims, environmental claims, and landlord/tenant disputes. The Company records an accrual for legal contingencies when it determines, after consultation with outside counsel, that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In making such determinations, the Company evaluates, among other things, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and, when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, the Company’s ability to make a reasonable estimate of loss. The Company reviews these accruals each fiscal quarter and makes revisions based on changes in facts and circumstances including changes to its strategy in dealing with these matters. The Company believes that it has adequately accrued for such matters with reserves of $13 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Such reserves are exclusive of matters relating to the Company’s separation from Cendant, matters relating to the Spin-off, matters relating to the sale of the European vacation rentals business, and matters relating to the sale of the North American vacation rentals business, which are discussed in Note 29— Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries . Litigation is inherently unpredictable and, although the Company believes that its accruals are adequate and/or that it has valid defenses in these matters, unfavorable results could occur. As such, an adverse outcome from such proceedings for which claims are awarded in excess of the amounts accrued, if any, could be material to the Company with respect to earnings and/or cash flows in any given reporting period. As of December 31, 2020, the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of such legal proceedings could, in the aggregate, range up to $35 million in excess of recorded accruals. However, the Company does not believe that the impact of such litigation should result in a material liability to the Company in relation to its consolidated financial position and/or liquidity. For matters deemed reasonably possible, therefore not requiring accrual, the Company believes that such matters will not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows based on information currently available. As of December 31, 2020, the potential exposure resulting from adverse outcomes of such legal proceedings could, in the aggregate, range up to an amount less than $1 million. G UARANTEES /I NDEMNIFICATIONS Standard Guarantees/Indemnifications In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements that contain standard guarantees and indemnities whereby the Company indemnifies another party for specified breaches of, or third-party claims relating to, an underlying agreement. Such underlying agreements are typically entered into by one of the Company’s subsidiaries. The various underlying agreements generally govern purchases, sales or outsourcing of products or services, leases of real estate, licensing of software and/or development of vacation ownership properties, access to credit facilities, derivatives and issuances of debt securities. Also in the ordinary course of business, the Company provides corporate guarantees for its operating business units relating to merchant credit-card processing for prepaid customer stays and other deposits. While a majority of these guarantees and indemnifications extend only for the duration of the underlying agreement, some survive the expiration of the agreement. The Company is not able to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments to be made under these guarantees and indemnifications as the triggering events are not predictable. In certain cases, the Company maintains insurance coverage that may mitigate any potential payments. Other Guarantees and Indemnifications Vacation Ownership The Company has committed to repurchase completed property located in Las Vegas, Nevada, from a third-party developer subject to such property meeting the Company’s vacation ownership resort standards and provided that the third-party developer has not sold such property to another party. See Note 11— Inventory for additional details. In connection with the Company’s vacation ownership inventory sale transactions, for which it has conditional rights and conditional obligations to repurchase the completed properties, the Company was required to maintain an investment-grade credit rating from at least one rating agency. As a result of the Spin-off, the Company failed to maintain an investment-grade credit rating with at least one rating agency, which triggered a default. During 2018, the Company agreed to pay $8 million in fees in lieu of posting collateral in favor of the development partner in an amount equal to the remaining obligations under the agreements. As part of the Fee-for-Service program, the Company may guarantee to reimburse the developer a certain payment or to purchase inventory from the developer, for a percentage of the original sale price if certain future conditions exist. As of December 31, 2020, the maximum potential future payments that the Company may be required to make under these guarantees is $32 million. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no recognized liabilities in connection with these guarantees. For information on guarantees and indemnifications related to the Company’s former parent and subsidiaries see Note 29— Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries . |

Share-based Payment Arrangement, Noncash Expense [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation The Company has a stock-based compensation plan available to grant RSUs, PSUs, SSARs, non-qualified stock options (“NQs”), and other stock-based awards to key employees, non-employee directors, advisors, and consultants. The Wyndham Worldwide Corporation 2006 Equity and Incentive Plan was originally adopted in 2006 and was amended and restated in its entirety and approved by shareholders on May 17, 2018, (the “Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan”). Under the Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan, a maximum of 15.7 million shares of common stock may be awarded. As of December 31, 2020, 11.9 million shares remain available. Incentive Equity Awards Granted by the Company During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company granted incentive equity awards to key employees and senior officers totaling $35 million in the form of RSUs, $8 million in the form of PSUs, and $8 million in the form of stock options. Of these awards, the majority of NQs and RSUs will vest ratably over a period of four years. The PSUs will cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, contingent upon the Company achieving certain performance metrics. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company granted incentive equity awards totaling $26 million in the form of RSUs, $7 million in the form of PSUs, and $5 million in the form of stock options. During 2018, the Company granted incentive equity awards totaling $58 million in the form of RSUs and $7 million in the form of stock options. The activity related to incentive equity awards granted to the Company’s key employees and senior officers by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020, consisted of the following (in millions, except grant prices): Balance as of December 31, 2019 Granted Vested/Exercised Forfeitures (a) Balance as of December 31, 2020 RSUs Number of RSUs 1.0 1.0 (0.3) (0.1) 1.6 (b) Weighted average grant price $ 46.32 $ 33.64 $ 46.44 $ 42.95 $ 38.22 PSUs Number of PSUs 0.2 0.1 — — 0.3 (c) Weighted average grant price $ 44.38 $ 41.04 $ — $ — $ 42.57 SSARs Number of SSARs 0.2 — — — 0.2 (d) Weighted average grant price $ 34.24 $ — $ — $ — $ 34.51 NQs (f) Number of NQs 1.3 1.1 — (0.1) 2.3 (e) Weighted average grant price $ 46.84 $ 41.04 $ — $ 43.43 $ 44.15 (a) The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur. (b) Aggregate unrecognized compensation expense related to RSUs was $45 million as of December 31, 2020, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.4 years. (c) There was no unrecognized compensation expense related to PSUs as of December 31, 2020. (d) There were 0.2 million SSARs that were exercisable as of December 31, 2020. There was no unrecognized compensation expense related to SSARs as of December 31, 2020, as all SSARs were vested. (e) There were 0.5 million NQs which were exercisable as of December 31, 2020. These NQs will expire over a weighted average period of 7.7 years and carry a weighted average grant date fair value of $8.61. Unrecognized compensation expense for the NQs was $11 million as of December 31, 2020, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.8 years. (f) Upon execution of NQs, the Company issues new shares to participants. The fair value of stock options granted by the Company during 2020 and 2019 were estimated on the dates of these grants using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the relevant weighted average assumptions outlined in the table below. Expected volatility was based on both historical and implied volatilities of the Company’s stock and the stock of comparable companies over the estimated expected life for options. The expected life represents the period of time these awards are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on yields on U.S. Treasury strips with a maturity similar to the estimated expected life of the options. The projected dividend yield was based on the Company’s anticipated annual dividend divided by the price of the Company’s stock on the date of the grant. Stock Options 2020 2019 Grant date fair value $7.27 - $7.28 $8.98 Grant date strike price $41.04 $44.38 Expected volatility 32.60 % - 32.88% 29.97% Expected life 6.25 - 7.50 years 6.25 years Risk-free interest rate 0.95 % - 1.03% 2.59% Projected dividend yield 4.87% 4.06% Stock-Based Compensation Expense The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $20 million, $24 million, and $151 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018, related to the incentive equity awards granted to key employees, senior officers, and non-employee directors. Such stock-based compensation expense included expense related to discontinued operations of $22 million for 2018. Stock-based compensation expense for 2019 and 2018 included $4 million and $105 million of expense which has been classified within Separation and related costs in continuing operations on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company paid $2 million, $4 million, and $60 million of taxes for the net share settlement of incentive equity awards that vested during 2020, 2019, and 2018. Such amounts are included within Financing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Employee Stock Purchase Plan During 2019, the Company implemented an employee stock purchase plan. This plan allows eligible employees to purchase common shares of Company stock through payroll deductions at a 10% discount from the fair market value at the grant date. The Company issued 0.2 million shares in both 2020 and 2019 and recognized $1 million of compensation expense related to the grants under this plan in each period. The value of shares issued under this plan was $7 million and $11 million for 2020 and 2019. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Employee Benefit Plans | Employee Benefit Plans Defined Contribution Benefit Plans Travel + Leisure sponsors domestic defined contribution savings plans and a domestic deferred compensation plan that provide eligible employees of the Company an opportunity to accumulate funds for retirement. The Company matches the contributions of participating employees on the basis specified by each plan. The Company’s cost for these plans was $19 million during 2020, and $33 million during both 2019 and 2018. In addition, the Company contributes to several foreign employee benefit contributory plans which also provide eligible employees with an opportunity to accumulate funds for retirement. The Company’s contributory cost for these plans was $7 million during 2020, $8 million during 2019, and $10 million during 2018. Defined Benefit Pension Plans The Company sponsors defined benefit pension plans for certain foreign subsidiaries, which were primarily part of the Company’s European vacation rentals business, which is presented as discontinued operations. Under these plans, benefits are based on an employee’s years of credited service and a percentage of final average compensation or as otherwise described by the plan. During 2018, the Company recognized a $4 million loss related to the settlement of its obligation under these plans for the European vacation rentals business which was included as a component of the (Loss)/gain on disposal of discontinued business, net of income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company had $5 million and $4 million of net pension liability as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, included within Accrued expenses and other liabilities. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had less than $1 million of unrecognized gains included within Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s policy is to contribute amounts sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements as set forth in employee benefit and tax laws and additional amounts that the Company determines to be appropriate. The Company had no pension expense related to these plans during 2020, 2019, and 2018. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Information | Segment Information The Company has two operating segments: Vacation Ownership and Travel and Membership. The Vacation Ownership segment develops, markets and sells VOIs to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts. The Travel and Membership segment operates a variety of travel businesses, including three vacation exchange brands, a home exchange network, travel technology platforms, travel memberships, and direct-to-consumer rentals. During 2018, the Company decided to explore strategic alternatives for its North American vacation rentals business, which was part of its Travel and Membership segment and completed the sale of this business on October 22, 2019. The assets and liabilities of this business were classified as held-for-sale until the sale was completed. This business did not meet the criteria to be classified as a discontinued operation; therefore, the results of operations through the date of sale are included in the 2018 and 2019 results presented in the tables below. The reportable segments presented below represent the Company’s operating segments for which discrete financial information is available and which are utilized on a regular basis by its chief operating decision maker to assess performance and to allocate resources. In identifying its reportable segments, the Company also considers the nature of services provided by its operating segments. Management uses net revenues and Adjusted EBITDA to assess the performance of the reportable segments. Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as Net (loss)/income from continuing operations before Depreciation and amortization, Interest expense (excluding Consumer financing interest), early extinguishment of debt, Interest income (excluding Consumer financing revenues) and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes stock-based compensation costs, separation and restructuring costs, transaction costs, impairments, gains and losses on sale/disposition of business, and items that meet the conditions of unusual and/or infrequent. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of performance for its segments which, when considered with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”) measures, the Company believes gives a more complete understanding of its operating performance. The Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. The following tables present the Company’s segment information (in millions): Year Ended December 31, Net revenues 2020 2019 2018 Vacation Ownership $ 1,637 $ 3,151 $ 3,016 Travel and Membership 528 898 918 Total reportable segments 2,165 4,049 3,934 Corporate and other (a) (5) (6) (3) Total Company $ 2,160 $ 4,043 $ 3,931 Year Ended December 31, Reconciliation of Net income to Adjusted EBITDA 2020 2019 2018 Net (loss)/income attributable to Travel + Leisure shareholders $ (255) $ 507 $ 672 Loss from operations of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes — — 50 Loss/(gain) on disposal of discontinued business, net of income taxes 2 (18) (456) (Benefit from)/provision for income taxes (23) 191 130 Depreciation and amortization 126 121 138 Interest expense 192 162 170 Interest (income) (7) (7) (5) Gain on sale of business — (68) — Asset impairments (b) 57 27 (4) COVID-19 related costs (c) 56 — — Exchange inventory write-off 48 — — Restructuring 39 9 16 Stock-based compensation 20 20 23 Legacy items (d) 4 1 1 Acquisition and divestiture related costs — 1 — Value-added tax refund — — (16) Separation and related costs (e) — 45 223 Adjusted EBITDA $ 259 $ 991 $ 942 Year Ended December 31, Adjusted EBITDA 2020 2019 2018 Vacation Ownership $ 121 $ 756 $ 731 Travel and Membership 191 289 278 Total reportable segments 312 1,045 1,009 Corporate and other (a) (53) (54) (67) Total Company $ 259 $ 991 $ 942 (a) Includes the elimination of transactions between segments.

Separation and Related Costs [Abstract] | |
Separation and Transaction Costs | Separation and Transaction Costs During 2019, the Company incurred $45 million of expenses in connection with the Spin-off completed on May 31, 2018, which are reflected within continuing operations. These separation costs were related to stock compensation, severance and other employee costs, as well as impairment charges due to the write-off of right-of-use assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment as a result of the Company abandoning portions of its administrative offices in New Jersey. This decision was part of the Company’s continued focus on rationalizing existing facilities in order to reduce its corporate footprint. These expenses also include additional impairment charges associated with the write-off of assets and liabilities related to the early termination of an operating lease in Chicago, Illinois, partially offset by an indemnification receivable from Wyndham Hotels. Refer to Note 13— Leases for additional detail regarding these impairments. During 2018, the Company incurred $223 million of expenses in connection with the Spin-off which are reflected within continuing operations and include related costs of the Spin-off, of which $217 million were related to stock compensation modification expense, severance and other employee costs offset, in part, by favorable foreign currency. In addition, these costs include certain impairment charges related to the separation including property sold to Wyndham Hotels. |

This was reflected as a $205 million reduction to Vacation ownership interest sales and a $48 million reduction to Cost of vacation ownership interests on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The net negative impact of the additional provision related to COVID-19 on Adjusted EBITDA was $157 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company will continue to monitor this reserve as more information becomes available. Refer to Note 10— Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables for additional details. Employee Compensation Related and Other - These costs included $97 million related to severance and other employee costs resulting from the layoffs, salary and benefits continuation for certain employees while operations were suspended, and vacation payments associated with furloughed employees, $17 million related to professional fees and expenses related to renegotiating or exiting certain agreements; partially offset by $26 million of employee retention credits earned in connection with government programs, primarily the CARES Act. A reduction in workforce in March resulted in the layoff or furlough of approximately 9,000 employees, with an additional 1,400 of furloughs during the remainder of the year. As of December 31, 2020, there were approximately 5,300 employees that were laid off or remained furloughed.

Asset Impairments and Other Charges [Abstract] | |
Impairment and Other Charges | Impairments and Other Charges Impairments During 2020, the Company recorded $52 million of asset impairments, $51 million which were COVID-19 related. In the first quarter of 2020, there were $6 million of impairments at the Vacation Ownership segment related to prepaid development costs and undeveloped land and $4 million at the Travel and Membership segment related to the Love Home Swap trade name. In the second quarter, the Company recorded a $24 million impairment at the Travel and Membership segment related to the New Jersey lease discussed in Note 28— Restructuring and the associated furniture, fixtures and equipment, a $6 million impairment for equity investments held at the Travel and Membership segment, and a $3 million impairment at the Vacation Ownership segment related to lease assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment. During the third quarter, $6 million of impairments were driven by right-to-use leases and related fixed assets within the Vacation Ownership operating segment due to sales center closures. During the fourth quarter, there was $1 million of impairments at the Vacation Ownership segment and $1 million of impairments at the corporate segment. These impairments are recorded within Asset impairments on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income.

During 2018, the Company sold a property which was previously impaired by $27 million as part of a fair value assessment on land held for VOI development. The Company received net proceeds of $11 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $8 million, which is included within Asset impairments on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Also, as a result of changes in market conditions, the Company updated its long-term development goals during 2018 which resulted in $4 million of additional impairment charges on previously impaired properties. This additional impairment expense and the aforementioned reversal, resulted in a net impairment reversal of $4 million during 2018. Other Charges Refer to Note 25— Separation and Transaction Costs, for discussion of the additional 2019 and 2018 impairments associated with the Spin-off. |

Restructuring Charges [Abstract] | |
Restructuring | Restructuring 2020 Restructuring Plans During 2020, the Company recorded $37 million of restructuring charges, $36 million which were COVID-19 related. Due to the impact of COVID-19, the Company decided in the second quarter of 2020 to abandon the remaining portion of its administrative offices in New Jersey. The Company was notified in the second quarter that Wyndham Hotels exercised its early termination rights under the sublease agreement. As a result, the Company recorded $22 million of restructuring charges associated with non-lease components of the office space and $24 million of impairment charges associated with the write-off of right-of-use assets and furniture, fixtures and equipment at its Travel and Membership segment. The Company also recognized $12 million of lease-related charges due to the renegotiation of an agreement and $2 million of facility-related restructuring charges associated with closed sales centers at its Vacation Ownership segment. The Travel and Membership segment additionally recognized $1 million in employee related expenses associated with the consolidation of a shared service center. The Company reduced the 2020 restructuring liability by $12 million of cash payments during 2020. The remaining 2020 restructuring liability of $25 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2029. 2019 Restructuring Plans During 2019, the Company recorded $5 million of charges related to restructuring initiatives, most of which are personnel-related resulting from a reduction of approximately 100 employees. This action is primarily focused on enhancing organizational efficiency and rationalizing operations. The charges consisted of (i) $2 million at the Vacation Ownership segment, (ii) $2 million at the Travel and Membership segment, and (iii) $1 million at the Company’s corporate operations. During 2020, the Company incurred an additional $1 million of restructuring expenses at both the Travel and Membership segment and its corporate operations. The Company reduced its restructuring liability by $5 million and $1 million of cash payments during 2020 and 2019. The remaining 2019 restructuring liability of less than $1 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2021. 2018 Restructuring Plans During 2018, the Company recorded $16 million of charges related to restructuring initiatives, all of which are personnel-related resulting from a reduction of approximately 500 employees. This action was primarily focused on enhancing organizational efficiency and rationalizing operations. The charges consisted of (i) $11 million at the Vacation Ownership segment, (ii) $4 million at the Travel and Membership segment, and (iii) $1 million at the Company’s corporate operations. During 2019, the Company incurred an additional $3 million of restructuring expenses at its Vacation Ownership segment and an additional $1 million at its corporate operations related to these restructuring activities. The Company reduced its restructuring liability by $3 million , $13 million, and $4 million of cash payments during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The remaining 2018 restructuring liability of less than $1 million is expected to be paid by the end of 2021.

Related Party Transaction, Due from (to) Related Party [Abstract] | |
Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries | Transactions with Former Parent and Former Subsidiaries Matters Related to Cendant Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement with Cendant (the Company’s former parent company), the Company entered into certain guarantee commitments with Cendant and Cendant’s former subsidiary, Realogy. These guarantee arrangements primarily relate to certain contingent litigation liabilities, contingent tax liabilities, and Cendant contingent and other corporate liabilities, of which Wyndham Worldwide Corporation (“Wyndham Worldwide”) assumed 37.5% of the responsibility while Cendant’s former subsidiary Realogy is responsible for the remaining 62.5%. As a result of the Wyndham Worldwide separation, Wyndham Hotels agreed to retain one-third of Cendant’s contingent and other corporate liabilities and associated costs; therefore, Travel + Leisure is effectively responsible for 25% of such matters subsequent to the separation. Since Cendant’s separation, Cendant has settled the majority of the lawsuits that were pending on the date of the separation. As of December 31, 2020, the Cendant separation and related liabilities of $13 million are comprised of $12 million for tax related liabilities and $1 million for other contingent and corporate liabilities. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had $13 million of Cendant separation-related liabilities. These liabilities are included within Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Matters Related to Wyndham Hotels In connection with the Spin-off on May 31, 2018, Travel + Leisure entered into several agreements with Wyndham Hotels that govern the relationship of the parties following the separation including the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement and the License, Development and Noncompetition Agreement. On January 4, 2021, the Company and Wyndham Hotels entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which, among other things Wyndham Hotels waived its right to enforce certain noncompetition covenants in the License, Development and Noncompetition Agreement. In accordance with the agreements governing the relationship between Travel + Leisure and Wyndham Hotels, Travel + Leisure assumed two-thirds and Wyndham Hotels assumed one-third of certain contingent corporate liabilities of the Company incurred prior to the distribution, including liabilities of the Company related to certain terminated or divested businesses, certain general corporate matters, and any actions with respect to the separation plan. Likewise, Travel + Leisure is entitled to receive two-thirds and Wyndham Hotels is entitled to receive one-third of the proceeds from certain contingent corporate assets of the Company arising or accrued prior to the distribution. During 2018, the Company conveyed the lease for its former corporate headquarters located in Parsippany, New Jersey, to Wyndham Hotels, which resulted in the removal of a $66 million capital lease obligation and a $43 million asset from the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Travel + Leisure entered into a transition service agreement with Wyndham Hotels, pursuant to which the companies agreed to provide each other certain transitional services including human resources, facilities, payroll, tax, information technology, information management and related services, treasury, finance, sourcing, and employee benefits administration on an interim, transitional basis. During 2020, transition service agreement expenses of less than $1 million were included in General and administrative expense. During 2019, transition service agreement expenses of $3 million were included in General and administrative expense, and $2 million were included in Separation and related costs on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Transition service agreement income of $1 million in 2019 was included in Other revenue on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. During 2018, transition service agreement expenses were $8 million and transition service agreement income was $6 million. As of December 31, 2020, these transition services have ended. As a result of the sale of the North American vacation rentals business to Vacasa, the Company paid Wyndham Hotels $5 million for a trade name royalty buy-out. The related expense was recorded as a reduction to Gain on sale of business on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Matters Related to the European Vacation Rentals Business In connection with the sale of the Company’s European vacation rentals business to Awaze Limited (“Awaze”), formerly Compass IV Limited, an affiliate of Platinum Equity, LLC, the Company and Wyndham Hotels agreed to certain post- closing credit support for the benefit of certain credit card service providers, a British travel association, and certain regulatory authorities to allow them to continue providing services or regulatory approval to the business. Post-closing credit support may be called if the business fails to meet its primary obligation to pay amounts when due. Awaze has provided an indemnification to Travel + Leisure in the event that the post-closing credit support is enforced or called upon. Such post-closing credit support included a guarantee of up to $180 million which expired June 30, 2019. At closing, the Company agreed to provide additional post-closing credit support to a British travel association and regulatory authority. An escrow was established at closing, of which $46 million was subsequently released in exchange for a secured bonding facility and a perpetual guarantee denominated in pound sterling of $46 million. The estimated fair value of the guarantee was $22 million at December 31, 2020. The Company established a $7 million receivable from Wyndham Hotels for its portion of the guarantee. During 2019, the Company reached an agreement with Awaze on certain post-closing adjustments, resulting in a reduction of proceeds by $27 million. In accordance with the separation agreement, the Company and Wyndham Hotels agreed to share two-thirds and one-third, in the European vacation rentals business’ final net proceeds (as defined by the sales agreement). The Company paid $40 million to Wyndham Hotels in 2019 for certain items including the return of the escrow, post-closing adjustments, transaction expenses, and estimated taxes. The Company also deposited $5 million into an escrow account for which all obligations ceased to exist on May 9, 2019. The escrow was returned to the Company in May 2019. In addition, the Company agreed to indemnify Awaze against certain claims and assessments, including income tax, value-added tax and other tax matters, related to the operations of the European vacation rentals business for the periods prior to the transaction. The estimated fair value of the indemnifications was $40 million at December 31, 2020. The Company has a $13 million receivable from Wyndham Hotels for its portion of the guarantee. During 2020, the Company recorded a $2 million loss on disposal resulting from a tax audit, net of Wyndham Hotels’ one-third share related to the European vacation rentals business. This additional expense was included within (Loss)/gain on disposal of discontinued businesses, net of income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Wyndham Hotels provided certain post-closing credit support primarily for the benefit of a British travel association in the form of guarantees which are mainly denominated in pound sterling of up to an approximate $81 million on a perpetual basis. These guarantees totaled $39 million at December 31, 2020. Travel + Leisure is responsible for two-thirds of these guarantees. As part of this agreement Wyndham Hotels is required to maintain minimum credit ratings which increased to Ba1 for Moody’s and BB+ for S&P on May 9, 2020. In April 2020, S&P downgraded Wyndham Hotels’ credit rating from BB+ to BB. Although any ultimate exposure relative to indemnities retained from the European vacation rentals sale will be shared two-thirds by Travel + Leisure and one-third by Wyndham Hotels, as the selling entity, Travel + Leisure is responsible for administering additional security to enhance corporate guarantees in the event either company falls below a certain credit rating threshold. As a result of the Wyndham Hotels credit ratings downgrade, during the third quarter, the Company posted a £58 million surety bond and a £36 million letter of credit ($79 million and $48 million as of December 31, 2020) which will be maintained until such time that either companies’ S&P and Moody’s credit rating improves to BB+/Ba1. The estimated fair value of the guarantees and indemnifications for which Travel + Leisure is responsible related to the sale of the European vacation rentals business at December 31, 2020, including the two-thirds portion related to guarantees provided by Wyndham Hotels, totaled $90 million and was recorded in Accrued expenses and other liabilities and total receivables of $21 million were included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, representing the portion of these guarantees and indemnifications for which Wyndham Hotels is responsible. During 2019, Awaze proposed certain post-closing adjustments of $44 million which could serve to reduce the net consideration received from the sale of the European vacation rentals business. The Company finds no basis for such adjustments, and at this time the Company cannot reasonably estimate the probability or amount of the potential liability that may be owed to Awaze, if any. Any potential liability would be shared two-thirds and one-third between the Company and Wyndham Hotels and the impact would be included in discontinued operations. After the close of the second quarter, Awaze filed its claim with the high courts of England and Wales. The Company filed its defense on September 25, 2020, setting forth its disagreement with the claim and rebuttal of any obligation for the amounts claimed. Travel + Leisure entered into a transition service agreement with Awaze, pursuant to which the companies agreed to provide each other certain transitional services including human resources, facilities, payroll, tax, information technology, information management and related services, treasury, finance, and sourcing on an interim, transitional basis. During 2020, transition service agreement expenses were less than $1 million and transition service agreement income was less than $1 million. During 2019, transition service agreement expenses were $2 million and transition service agreement income was $2 million. During 2018, transition service agreement expenses were $3 million and transition service agreement income was $3 million. Transition service agreement expenses were included in General and administrative expense and transition service income was included in Net revenues on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. As of September 30, 2020, these transition services have ended. Matters Related to the North American Vacation Rentals Business In connection with the sale of the North American vacation rentals business, the Company agreed to indemnify Vacasa against certain claims and assessments, including income tax and other tax matters related to the operations of the North American vacations rentals business for the periods prior to the transaction. The estimated fair value of the indemnifications was $2 million, which was included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020. In connection with the sale of the North American vacations rentals business in the fourth quarter of 2019, the Company entered into a transition service agreement with Vacasa, pursuant to which the companies agreed to provide each other certain transitional services including human resources, facilities, payroll, information technology, information management and related services, treasury, and finance on an interim, transitional basis. During 2020, transition service agreement expenses were $1 million and transition service agreement income was $2 million. During 2019, transition service agreement expenses were $3 million and transition service agreement income was $3 million. Transition service agreement expenses were included in General and administrative expense and transition service income was included in Other revenue on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company sold parcels of land in Shawnee, Pennsylvania, that are no longer core to the Company’s operations to a former executive of the Company for less than $1 million. In March 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with a former executive of the Company whereby the former executive through an SPE would develop and construct VOI inventory located in Orlando, Florida. On July 8, 2020, the Company acquired the completed vacation ownership property for $45 million. In August 2018, the Company provided notification to the owner trustee of the Company’s leased aircraft of its intent to exercise the purchase option for such aircraft at fair market value. In connection with that purchase, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the Company aircraft to its former CEO and current Chairman of the Board of Directors at a price equivalent to the purchase price. In January 2019, the transaction to purchase the aircraft and sell the aircraft for $16 million was closed. The Company occasionally sublets this aircraft for business travel through a timesharing arrangement, and incurred less than $1 million of expenses in 2020 and 2019. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting, Policy | Basis of Presentation The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K include the accounts and transactions of Travel + Leisure, as well as the entities in which Travel + Leisure directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to comply with newly adopted accounting standards. The Company presents an unclassified balance sheet which conforms to that of the Company’s peers and industry practice. In presenting the Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. In management’s opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of annual results reported. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles Of Consolidation | PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION When evaluating an entity for consolidation, the Company first determines whether an entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If the entity is deemed to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be the entity’s primary beneficiary and consolidates those VIEs for which the Company would be the primary beneficiary. The Company will also consolidate an entity not deemed a VIE upon determination that the Company has a controlling financial interest. For entities where the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, the investments in such entities are accounted for using the equity or cost method, as appropriate. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of a VIE, the Company analyzes its variable interests, including loans, guarantees, SPEs, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which the Company has a variable interest is a VIE. If the entity is considered to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be considered the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates into its financial statements those VIEs for which it has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables Securitizations The Company pools qualifying VOCRs and sells them to bankruptcy-remote entities. VOCRs qualify for securitization based primarily on the credit strength of the VOI purchaser to whom financing has been extended. VOCRs are securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs that are consolidated within the Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, the Company does not recognize gains or losses resulting from these securitizations at the time of sale to the SPEs. Interest income is recognized when earned over the contractual life of the VOCRs. The Company services the securitized VOCRs pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis based on market conditions. The activities of these SPEs are limited to (i) purchasing VOCRs from the Company’s vacation ownership subsidiaries, (ii) issuing debt securities and/or borrowing under a conduit facility to fund such purchases, and (iii) entering into derivatives to hedge interest rate exposure. The bankruptcy-remote SPEs are legally separate from the Company. The receivables held by the bankruptcy-remote SPEs are not available to creditors of the Company and legally are not assets of the Company. Additionally, the non-recourse debt that is securitized through the SPEs is legally not a liability of the Company and thus, the creditors of these SPEs have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest. |
Revenue Recognition and Loyalty Programs | REVENUE RECOGNITION In 2018, the Company adopted the Revenue from Contracts with Customers guidance utilizing the full retrospective transition method. Refer to Note 3— Revenue Recognition for full details of the Company’s revenue recognition policies. LOYALTY PROGRAMS The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program, which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The primary performance obligation for the program relates to brand performance services. Total contract consideration is estimated and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Revenues relating to the RCI Elite Rewards program, which are recorded in Other revenues on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $13 million, $15 million, and $12 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. Expenses related to this program, which are recorded within Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $7 million, $9 million, and $5 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The liabilities associated with the program as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, were $15 million and $18 million, and are included within Deferred income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the Spin-off, the Company has entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain its affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards. Wyndham Rewards members accumulate points by staying in hotels franchised under one of the Wyndham Hotels brands, and by purchasing everyday services and products utilizing their co-branded credit cards. Members may redeem their points for hotel stays, airline tickets, rental cars, resort vacations, electronics, sporting goods, movie and theme park tickets, gift certificates, vacation ownership maintenance fees, annual membership dues, and exchange fees for transactions. |
Cash And Cash Equivalents | CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers highly-liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. |
Restricted Cash | RESTRICTED CASH The largest portion of the Company’s restricted cash relates to securitizations. The remaining portion is comprised of cash held in escrow accounts. Securitizations. In accordance with the contractual requirements of the Company’s various vacation ownership contract receivable (“VOCR”) securitizations, a dedicated lockbox account, subject to a blocked control agreement, is established for each securitization. At each month end, the total cash in the collection account from the previous month is analyzed and a monthly servicer report is prepared by the Company, which details how much cash should be remitted to the note holders for principal and interest payments, and any cash remaining is transferred by the trustee back to the Company. Additionally, as required by various securitizations, the Company holds an agreed-upon percentage of the aggregate outstanding principal balances of the VOI contract receivables collateralizing the asset-backed notes in a segregated trust account as credit enhancement. Each time a securitization closes and the Company receives cash from the note holders, a portion of the cash is deposited in the trust account. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, restricted cash for securitizations totaled $92 million and $110 million. Escrow Deposits. Laws in most U.S. states require the escrow of down payments on VOI sales, with the typical requirement mandating that the funds be held in escrow until the rescission period expires. As sales transactions are consummated, down payments are collected and are subsequently placed in escrow until the rescission period has expired. Rescission periods vary by state, but range on average from five seven |
Receivable Valuation | RECEIVABLE VALUATION Trade receivables The Company provides for estimated bad debts based on its assessment of the ultimate ability to realize receivables, considering historical collection experience, the economic environment, and specific customer information. When the Company determines that an account is not collectible, the account is written-off to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The following table illustrates the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts activity from continuing operations for the year ended December 31 (in millions): 2020 2019 2018 Beginning balance $ 154 $ 104 $ 78 Bad debt expense 125 100 75 Write-offs (58) (51) (49) Translation and other adjustments — 1 — Ending balance $ 221 $ 154 $ 104 Vacation ownership contract receivables In the Vacation Ownership segment, the Company provides for estimated VOCR defaults at the time of VOI sales by recording a provision for loan losses as a reduction of Vacation ownership interest sales on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company assesses the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses related to these VOIs using a technique referred to as a static pool analysis. This analysis is based upon the historical performance of similar VOCRs and incorporates more recent history of default information. Management prepares a model to track defaults for each year's sales over the entire life of the contract receivable as a means to project future expected losses. A qualitative assessment is also performed to determine whether any external economic conditions or internal portfolio characteristics indicate an adjustment is necessary to reflect expected impacts on the contract receivables portfolio. If current or expected future conditions differ from the conditions in effect when the historical experience was generated, the Company adjusts the allowance for loan losses to reflect the expected effects of the current environment on the collectability of VOCR. Due to the economic disruption resulting from COVID-19, the Company estimated an additional loan loss allowance related to the impacts on its owners’ ability to repay their contract receivables. The Company based its COVID-19 loan loss estimate upon historical data on the relationship between unemployment rates and net new defaults observed during the most recent recession in 2008. |
Inventory | INVENTORY Inventory primarily consists of completed VOIs, VOIs under construction, land held for future VOI development, vacation exchange credits, and real estate interests sold subject to conditional repurchase. The Company applies the relative sales value method for relieving VOI inventory and recording the related cost of sales. Under the relative sales value method, cost of sales is recorded using a percentage ratio of total estimated development cost to total estimated VOI revenue, including estimated future revenue and incorporating factors such as changes in prices and the recovery of VOIs generally as a result of contract receivable defaults. The effect of such changes in estimates under the relative sales value method is accounted for in each period using a current-period adjustment to inventory and cost of sales. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, including capitalized interest, property taxes, and certain other carrying costs incurred during the construction process, or estimated fair value less costs to sell. Capitalized interest was less than $1 million in 2020, and $1 million in both 2019 and 2018. |
Property And Equipment | PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT Property and equipment (including leasehold improvements) are recorded at cost, and presented net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, recorded as a component of Depreciation and amortization on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease terms or estimated useful lives of the related assets. Amortization of leasehold improvements, also recorded as a component of Depreciation and amortization, is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the lesser of the estimated benefit period of the related assets or the lease terms. Useful lives are generally 30 years for buildings, up to 20 years for leasehold improvements, up to 30 years for vacation rental properties, and from three The Company capitalizes the costs of software developed for internal use in accordance with the guidance for accounting for costs of computer software developed or obtained fo r internal use. Capitalization of software costs developed for internal use commences during the development phase of the pro ject. The Company amortizes software developed or obtained for internal use on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, which is generally three The net carrying value of software developed or obtained for internal use was $191 million and $193 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. Capitalized interest was $1 million, $2 million, and $1 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. |
Derivatives Instruments | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTSThe Company uses derivative instruments as part of its overall strategy to manage its exposure to market risks primarily associated with fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. As a matter of policy, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. All derivatives are recorded at fair value either as assets or liabilities. Changes in fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments and of derivatives designated as fair value hedging instruments are recognized in Operating (loss)/income and net interest expense, based upon the nature of the hedged item, on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Changes in fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedging instruments are recorded as components of other comprehensive income. Amounts included in other comprehensive income are reclassified into earnings in the same period during which the hedged item affects earnings. |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated based upon the temporary differences between the financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using currently enacted tax rates. These differences are based upon estimated differences between the book and tax basis of the assets and liabilities for the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company recognizes the effects of changes in tax laws, or rates, as a component of income taxes from continuing operations within the period that includes the enactment date. The Company’s deferred tax assets are recorded net of a valuation allowance when, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the recorded deferred tax assets will not be realized in future periods. Decreases to the valuation allowance are recorded as reductions to the Company’s provision for income taxes and increases to the valuation allowance result in additional provision for income taxes. The realization of the Company’s deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowance, is primarily dependent on estimated future taxable income. A change in the Company’s estimate of future taxable income may require an addition to or reduction from the valuation allowance. For tax positions the Company has taken or expects to take in a tax return, the Company applies a more likely than not threshold, under which the Company must conclude a tax position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming that the position will be examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information, in order to recognize or continue to recognize the benefit. In determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, the Company uses judgment, reflecting its estimates and assumptions, in applying the more likely than not threshold. The Company classifies interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits as a component of (Benefit from)/provision for income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. During 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance on the accounting for tax on the global intangible low-taxed income provisions of the recently enacted tax law. These provisions impose a tax on foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations. The Company has elected to treat taxes due on future inclusions in taxable income as a current-period expense when incurred. During the fourth quarter of 2018, in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 - Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act , the Company completed its accounting for the tax effects of the U.S. tax reform recorded for 2017. |
Advertising Expense | ADVERTISING EXPENSE Advertising costs are expensed in the period incurred and are recorded within Marketing expense on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. Advertising costs were $26 million, $37 million, and $27 million in 2020, 2019, and 2018. |
Stock-Based Compensation | STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In accordance with the guidance for stock-based compensation, the Company measures all stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and records the related expense in its Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. |
Intangible Assets, Finite-Lived, Policy [Policy Text Block] | LONG-LIVED ASSETS Assets such as customer lists, management agreements, and trademarks acquired by the Company are classified as intangible assets and recorded at their fair value as of the date of the acquisition and categorized as having either a finite life or an indefinite life. Assets deemed to have a finite life are assigned an appropriate useful life and amortized on a straight-line basis. |
Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets | IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company has goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded in connection with business combinations. The Company annually (during the fourth quarter of each year subsequent to completing the Company’s annual forecasting process), or more frequently if circumstances indicate that the value of goodwill may be impaired, reviews the reporting units’ carrying values as required by the guidance for goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets. This is done either by performing a qualitative assessment or a quantitative assessment, with an impairment being recognized only if a reporting unit’s fair value is less than carrying value. In any given year the Company can elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is in excess of its carrying value. If it is not more likely than not that the fair value is in excess of the carrying value, or the Company elects to bypass the qualitative assessment, it would utilize the quantitative assessment. The qualitative factors evaluated include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, overall financial performance, the Company’s historical share price as well as other industry-specific considerations. Under current accounting guidance, goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are not subject to amortization. However, goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives are subject to fair value-based rules for measuring impairment, and resulting write-downs, if any, are reflected in Asset impairments. The Company has goodwill recorded at its Vacation Ownership and Travel and Membership reporting units. The Company performed a qualitative analysis for each of its reporting units for each quarter of 2020, including its annual fourth quarter analysis as of October 1, 2020. Additionally, the Company performed quantitative assessments of the goodwill acquired as part of the ARN acquisition during the third and fourth quarters of 2020 which resulted in the fair value exceeding the carrying value. For the quantitative assessment performed in the fourth quarter as part of the Company’s annual impairment analysis on October 1, 2020, it was determined that the fair value exceeded the carrying amount by approximately 20%. Based on the results of these qualitative and quantitative assessments the Company determined that ARN’s goodwill is not impaired and that it is more likely than not that goodwill is not impaired at the Company’s other reporting units. The Company also evaluates the recoverability of its other long-lived assets, including property and equipment and amortizable intangible assets, if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred, pursuant to guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This analysis is performed by comparing the respective carrying values of the assets to the current and expected future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated from such assets. Property and equipment is evaluated separately within each segment. If such analysis indicates that the carrying value of these assets is not recoverable, the carrying value of such assets is reduced to fair value. In addition to the goodwill assessment mentioned above, as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 the Company performed an impairment analysis on select long-lived assets during 2020. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded $56 million of COVID-19 related impairment charges during 2020 with $51 million included in Asset impairments and $5 million included in Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. See Note 26— COVID-19 Related Items for additional details. |
Accounting For Restructuring Activities | ACCOUNTING FOR RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIESThe Company’s restructuring activities require it to make significant estimates in several areas including (i) expenses for severance and related benefit costs, (ii) the ability to generate sublease income, as well as its ability to terminate lease obligations, and (iii) contract terminations. The amount that the Company accrued as of December 31, 2020, represents its best estimate of the obligations incurred in connection with these actions, but could change due to various factors including market conditions, the outcome of negotiations with third parties, or the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. |
Other Income | OTHER INCOME During 2020, the Company recorded $14 million of other income primarily related to (i) settlements of various business interruption claims at its Vacation Ownership segment and (ii) value added tax provision releases at its Travel and Membership segment. During 2019, the Company recorded $23 million of other income primarily related to (i) settlements of various business interruption claims, (ii) value added tax provision releases at its Travel and Membership segment, and (iii) profit sharing at its Travel and Membership segment. During 2018, the Company recorded $38 million of income related to (i) value added tax refunds at its Travel and Membership segment, (ii) settlements of various business interruption claims, and (iii) co-branded revenue at its Vacation Ownership segment. |
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements | RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes . In December 2019, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The guidance amends the accounting for hybrid tax regimes where a tax jurisdiction imposes the greater of tax based on income versus tax based on another measurement basis, addresses the recognition of tax basis in goodwill not generated through a business combination, eliminates certain exceptions to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation when a loss from continuing operations exists, calculating interim period taxes related to enacted changes in tax law, requirements in the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences and exceptions to the ability not to recognize deferred tax liability for a foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary. The issued guidance also clarifies the financial statement presentation for tax benefits related to tax deductible dividends. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Reference Rate Reform . In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. This guidance was effective as of March 12, 2020, and will apply through December 31, 2022. The transition from LIBOR based benchmark rates is expected to begin January 1, 2022 and be completed when U.S. Dollar (“USD”) LIBOR rates are phased out by June 30, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the transition from LIBOR on its financial statements and related disclosures and the related impact of this guidance on the transition. On October 27, 2020, the Company closed on the renewal of its USD bank conduit facility (see Note 16— Debt for additional details) and adopted appropriate LIBOR disclosures for asset-backed securities (“ABS”) financing structures as part of the renewal. The Company intends to adopt such language, as appropriate, in its other relevant agreements prior to the end of 2021. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance which amends the guidance on measuring credit losses on financial assets held at amortized cost. The guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the fiscal year. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements as the Company’s prior approach in estimating the allowance for loan losses generally aligned with the expected credit loss model required upon adoption of this guidance. The Company has included additional disclosures in accordance with the adoption of this guidance, which are included in Note 10— Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables . As part of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement, the Company made an accounting policy election to present accrued interest receivable within Trade receivables, net separate from its Vacation ownership contract receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and elected not to estimate an allowance for credit losses on the accrued interest receivable balance. Once a contract is 91 days past due, the Company ceases accruing interest and reverses all accrued interest recognized to date against interest income included within Consumer financing revenue on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company resumes accruing interest for contracts which it had previously ceased accruing interest once the contract is less than 91 days past due. Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance which simplifies the current two-step goodwill impairment test by eliminating step two of the test. The guidance requires a one-step impairment test in which an entity compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if any. This guidance was effective for the Company on January 1, 2020, including interim periods within the fiscal year, and was applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. |
Business Combinations Policy | Acquisitions Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition dates based upon their estimated fair values at such dates. The results of operations of businesses acquired by the Company have been included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income since their respective dates of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. In certain circumstances, the allocations of the excess purchase price are based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, the allocations may be subject to revision when the Company receives final information, including appraisals and other analyses. Any revisions to the fair values during the measurement period will be recorded by the Company as further adjustments to the purchase price allocations. Although, in certain circumstances, the Company has substantially integrated the operations of its acquired businesses, additional future costs relating to such integration may occur. These costs may result from integrating operating systems, relocating employees, closing facilities, reducing duplicative efforts, and exiting and consolidating other activities. These costs will be recorded on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income as expenses. |
Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses | Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses The basis of the differentiation within the identified class of financed VOI contract receivables is the consumer’s Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score. A FICO score is a branded version of a consumer credit score widely used within the U.S. by the largest banks and lending institutions. FICO scores range from 300 to 850 and are calculated based on information obtained from one or more of the three major U.S. credit reporting agencies that compile and report on a consumer’s credit history. The Company updates its records for all active VOI contract receivables with a balance due on a rolling monthly basis to ensure that all VOI contract receivables are scored at least every six months. The Company groups all VOI contract receivables into five different categories: FICO scores ranging from 700 to 850, from 600 to 699, below 600, no score (primarily comprised of consumers for whom a score is not readily available, including consumers declining access to FICO scores and non-U.S. residents), and Asia Pacific (comprised of receivables in the Company’s Vacation Ownership Asia Pacific business for which scores are not readily available). |
Leases | The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases for its corporate headquarters, administrative functions, marketing and sales offices, and various other facilities and equipment. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Many of its leases include rental escalation clauses, lease incentives, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into the Company’s determination of lease payments. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. The Company also made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the statements of (loss)/income.When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of its leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must estimate its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The majority of the Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one |
Deferred Financing Costs | Deferred Financing Costs The Company classifies debt issuance costs related to its revolving credit facilities and the bank conduit facilities within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such costs were $11 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
Revenue | Vacation Ownership The Company develops, markets, and sells VOIs to individual consumers, provides consumer financing in connection with the sale of VOIs, and provides property management services at resorts. The Company’s sales of VOIs are either cash sales or developer-financed sales. Developer financed sales are typically collateralized by the underlying VOI. Revenue is recognized on VOI sales upon transfer of control, which is defined as the point in time when a binding sales contract has been executed, the financing contract has been executed for the remaining transaction price, the statutory rescission period has expired, and the transaction price has been deemed to be collectible. For developer-financed sales, the Company reduces the VOI sales transaction price by an estimate of uncollectible consideration at the time of the sale. The Company’s estimates of uncollectible amounts are based largely on the results of the Company’s static pool analysis which relies on historical payment data by customer class. In connection with entering into a VOI sale, the Company may provide its customers with certain non-cash incentives, such as credits for future stays at its resorts. For those VOI sales, the Company bifurcates the sale and allocates the sales price between the VOI sale and the non-cash incentive. Non-cash incentives generally have expiration periods of 18 months or less and are recognized at a point in time upon transfer of control. The Company provides day-to-day property management services including oversight of housekeeping services, maintenance, and certain accounting and administrative services for property owners’ associations and clubs. These services may also include reservation and resort renovation activities. Such agreements are generally for terms of one year or less, and are renewed automatically on an annual basis. The Company’s management agreements contain cancellation clauses, which allow for either party to cancel the agreement, by either a majority board vote or a majority vote of non-developer interests. The Company receives fees for such property management services which are collected monthly in advance and are based upon total costs to operate such resorts (or as services are provided in the case of resort renovation activities). Fees for property management services typically approximate 10% of budgeted operating expenses. The Company is entitled to consideration for reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of the property owners’ association in providing management services (“reimbursable revenue”). These reimbursable costs principally relate to the payroll costs for management of the associations, club and resort properties where the Company is the employer and are reflected as a component of Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income. The Company reduces its management fees for amounts it has paid to the property owners’ association that reflect maintenance fees for VOIs for which it retains ownership, as the Company has concluded that such payments are consideration payable to a customer. Travel and Membership As a provider of vacation exchange services, the Company enters into affiliation agreements with developers of vacation ownership properties to allow owners of VOIs to trade their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange network and, for some members, for other leisure-related services and products. Travel and Membership derives a majority of revenues from membership dues and fees for facilitating members’ trading of their intervals. Revenues from membership dues represent the fees paid by members or affiliated clubs on their behalf. The Company recognizes revenues from membership dues paid by the member on a straight-line basis over the membership period as the performance obligations are fulfilled through delivery of publications, if applicable, and by providing access to travel-related products and services. Estimated net contract consideration payable by affiliated clubs for memberships is recognized as revenue over the term of the contract with the affiliated club in proportion to the estimated average monthly member count. Such estimates are adjusted periodically for changes in the actual and forecasted member activity. For additional fees, members have the right to exchange their intervals for intervals at other properties affiliated with the Company’s vacation exchange networks and, for certain members, for other leisure-related services and products. The Company also derives revenue from facilitating bookings of travel accommodations for both members and non-members. Revenue is recognized when these transactions have been confirmed, net of expected cancellations. The Company’s vacation exchange business also derives revenues from programs with affiliated resorts, club servicing, and loyalty programs; and additional exchange-related products that provide members with the ability to protect trading power or points, extend the life of deposits, and combine two or more deposits for the opportunity to exchange into intervals with higher trading power. Other vacation exchange related product fees are deferred and recognized as revenue upon the occurrence of a future exchange, event, or other related transaction. The Company also derives revenue from other travel products and services, enabled as a result of the 2019 acquisition of ARN and via the Company’s resort services solution business, optimizing business to business (“B2B”) capabilities, and integration for consumer travel planning. The Company’s relationships and buying power with major travel suppliers provide its partners with access to some of the most compelling travel inventory in the industry. The Company’s affiliates and members enjoy inventory from accommodation wholesalers, airfare, and rental car providers. The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program, which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The primary performance obligation for the program relates to brand performance services. Total contract consideration is estimated and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Prior to the sale of the vacation rental businesses, the Company’s vacation rental brands derived revenue from fees associated with the rental of vacation properties managed and marketed by the Company on behalf of independent owners. The Company remitted the rental fee received from the renter to the independent owner, net of the Company’s agreed-upon fee. The related revenue from such fees, net of expected refunds, was recognized over the renter’s stay. The Company’s vacation rental brands also derived revenues from additional services delivered to independent owners, vacation rental guests, and property owners’ associations which were generally recognized when the service was delivered.

Revenue Recognition and Loyalty Programs | REVENUE RECOGNITION In 2018, the Company adopted the Revenue from Contracts with Customers guidance utilizing the full retrospective transition method. Refer to Note 3— Revenue Recognition for full details of the Company’s revenue recognition policies. LOYALTY PROGRAMS The Company earns revenue from its RCI Elite Rewards co–branded credit card program, which is primarily generated by cardholder spending and the enrollment of new cardholders. The advance payments received under the program are recognized as a contract liability until the Company’s performance obligations have been satisfied. The primary performance obligation for the program relates to brand performance services. Total contract consideration is estimated and recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term. Revenues relating to the RCI Elite Rewards program, which are recorded in Other revenues on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $13 million, $15 million, and $12 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. Expenses related to this program, which are recorded within Operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income, were $7 million, $9 million, and $5 million during 2020, 2019, and 2018. The liabilities associated with the program as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, were $15 million and $18 million, and are included within Deferred income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As a result of the Spin-off, the Company has entered into long-term exclusive license agreements to retain its affiliations with one of the industry’s top-rated loyalty programs, Wyndham Rewards. Wyndham Rewards members accumulate points by staying in hotels franchised under one of the Wyndham Hotels brands, and by purchasing everyday services and products utilizing their co-branded credit cards. Members may redeem their points for hotel stays, airline tickets, rental cars, resort vacations, electronics, sporting goods, movie and theme park tickets, gift certificates, vacation ownership maintenance fees, annual membership dues, and exchange fees for transactions. |
Capitalized contract costs policy text block | Capitalized Contract Costs The Company’s Vacation Ownership segment incurs certain direct and incremental selling costs in connection with VOI trial package and incentive revenues. Such costs are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the utilization period, which is typically within one year of the sale. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, these capitalized costs were $41 million and $53 million; and are included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s Travel and Membership segment incurs certain direct and incremental selling costs to obtain contracts with customers in connection with subscription revenues and exchange–related revenues. Such costs, which are primarily comprised of commissions paid to internal and external parties and credit card processing fees, are deferred at the inception of the contract and recognized when the benefit is transferred to the customer. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, these capitalized costs were $16 million and $20 million; and are included within Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combinations Policy | Acquisitions Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations were recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition dates based upon their estimated fair values at such dates. The results of operations of businesses acquired by the Company have been included in the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income since their respective dates of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed was allocated to goodwill. In certain circumstances, the allocations of the excess purchase price are based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions. Accordingly, the allocations may be subject to revision when the Company receives final information, including appraisals and other analyses. Any revisions to the fair values during the measurement period will be recorded by the Company as further adjustments to the purchase price allocations. Although, in certain circumstances, the Company has substantially integrated the operations of its acquired businesses, additional future costs relating to such integration may occur. These costs may result from integrating operating systems, relocating employees, closing facilities, reducing duplicative efforts, and exiting and consolidating other activities. These costs will be recorded on the Consolidated Statements of (Loss)/Income as expenses. |

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses | Credit Quality for Financed Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses The basis of the differentiation within the identified class of financed VOI contract receivables is the consumer’s Fair Isaac Corporation (“FICO”) score. A FICO score is a branded version of a consumer credit score widely used within the U.S. by the largest banks and lending institutions. FICO scores range from 300 to 850 and are calculated based on information obtained from one or more of the three major U.S. credit reporting agencies that compile and report on a consumer’s credit history. The Company updates its records for all active VOI contract receivables with a balance due on a rolling monthly basis to ensure that all VOI contract receivables are scored at least every six months. The Company groups all VOI contract receivables into five different categories: FICO scores ranging from 700 to 850, from 600 to 699, below 600, no score (primarily comprised of consumers for whom a score is not readily available, including consumers declining access to FICO scores and non-U.S. residents), and Asia Pacific (comprised of receivables in the Company’s Vacation Ownership Asia Pacific business for which scores are not readily available). |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Leases | The Company leases property and equipment under finance and operating leases for its corporate headquarters, administrative functions, marketing and sales offices, and various other facilities and equipment. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, the Company records the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Many of its leases include rental escalation clauses, lease incentives, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into the Company’s determination of lease payments. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. The Company also made an accounting policy election to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term in the statements of (loss)/income.When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, most of its leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must estimate its incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement. The majority of the Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one |

Variable Interest Entity, Primary Beneficiary, Does Not Hold Majority Voting Interest, Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Principles Of Consolidation | PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION When evaluating an entity for consolidation, the Company first determines whether an entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). If the entity is deemed to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be the entity’s primary beneficiary and consolidates those VIEs for which the Company would be the primary beneficiary. The Company will also consolidate an entity not deemed a VIE upon determination that the Company has a controlling financial interest. For entities where the Company does not have a controlling financial interest, the investments in such entities are accounted for using the equity or cost method, as appropriate. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the consolidation of a VIE, the Company analyzes its variable interests, including loans, guarantees, SPEs, and equity investments, to determine if an entity in which the Company has a variable interest is a VIE. If the entity is considered to be a VIE, the Company determines whether it would be considered the entity’s primary beneficiary. The Company consolidates into its financial statements those VIEs for which it has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. Vacation Ownership Contract Receivables Securitizations The Company pools qualifying VOCRs and sells them to bankruptcy-remote entities. VOCRs qualify for securitization based primarily on the credit strength of the VOI purchaser to whom financing has been extended. VOCRs are securitized through bankruptcy-remote SPEs that are consolidated within the Consolidated Financial Statements. As a result, the Company does not recognize gains or losses resulting from these securitizations at the time of sale to the SPEs. Interest income is recognized when earned over the contractual life of the VOCRs. The Company services the securitized VOCRs pursuant to servicing agreements negotiated on an arm’s-length basis based on market conditions. The activities of these SPEs are limited to (i) purchasing VOCRs from the Company’s vacation ownership subsidiaries, (ii) issuing debt securities and/or borrowing under a conduit facility to fund such purchases, and (iii) entering into derivatives to hedge interest rate exposure. The bankruptcy-remote SPEs are legally separate from the Company. The receivables held by the bankruptcy-remote SPEs are not available to creditors of the Company and legally are not assets of the Company. Additionally, the non-recourse debt that is securitized through the SPEs is legally not a liability of the Company and thus, the creditors of these SPEs have no recourse to the Company for principal and interest. |
