OK - I'm new to Wyndham Rewards, but I spotted this thread last Friday and immediately joined. I have three stays booked already this coming week. (KI,S8, and Baymont). Some newby questions:

1. I got the rates from their website - it seems AARP, AAA, etc. give the best deals and they all say "qualified". I'm assuming this means they will count for the promo. Correct?

2. Any 'gotchas' I should be aware of? For instance, for most of the Choice Privileges promos, you have to book on the website or via their phone number. Any similar restrictions here?

3. This is really a juicy promo - wish I'd seen it earlier. I figure I can get 40-50K miles by sloughing off the remainder of the CP promo, but if I decide to also bypass Marriott's promo, I can probably pick up 100K AA miles. Not too shabby, especially since the rates I'm getting will wind up saving me 40-50 bucks a week. Sweet. But ...

Has Wyndham ever run any promo like this before? Are they likely to run one again? If this is unique, I'll be more likely to pound it for all it's worth, rather than exercise moderation (ed note: is this a Flyertalker talking? ) and fill in the other promos.

Anyhow, thinks to all who spotted this and did the legwork. I'm looking forward already to my next European trip on AA.
