Choice Privileges - New booking windows!

Just got an email regarding the Elite Member Voice.

Among the proposed (or already implemented) improvements to the program, the ones most important to many of us are:

In order to make reward nights more accessible, we expanded the reward night booking windows for 2011 to
50 (GOLD), 75 (PLATINUM) and 100 (DIAMOND) days.

and ...

We are currently working on a points plus cash option for reward nights. ...and...the ability... to redeem points for free Budget rentals or Avis gift certificates

If you like to plan ahead, the Diamond level now gives a lot more flexibility.

Look for the whole newsletter in your email.

(Might as well leave both threads up as we just lost our "man behind the curtain" moderator*.)
