I really wish for this kind of promo they would also offer some sort of "requal" promo for current Diamond members in good standing. It really makes it look like we're getting the shaft.

How would you "rejoin"? I'm assuming that this offer is for new memberships only... is there a way to cancel out a current membership with no record?

Hi JonathanIT. Isn't GP's giving the double stay credit to those who ask working like what you suggest -- just not an official promotion?

Just found about this today (as I am currently staying night #2 in the Hyatt McCormick Place for 7 nights). Hopefully, I will still qualify to get Plat status until 2011.
Too Bad I didn't know beforehand, could've gotten a city view room!

Some questions
This is a really sweet offer for us if it's truly applicable for existing members.
DH is presently platinum. Did so by doing mattress runs last fall during FFN (also helped in getting us a stay in Kauai w/o looting points). Unfortunately his business travel has been total cut this year. Last year he easily made AA Platinum this year 0 miles on any airline. He has had 3 nights in a hotel compared to several weeks last year. Knew he probably wouldn't requalify for Platinum through business travel and was starting to look for some "cheap" stays in the fall in anticipation of FFN.
Has anyone already in GP applied for this offer? Am I reading this correctly where one only needs 5 stays to qualify for Diamond? If so this would really come in handy for our point stay in Kauai this winter.
Any update on this offer would be greatly appreciated.

S/W GP. Found out if DH signs up he'll be upped to Diamond (presently he's Plat) and then he'll need the additional 15 nights to maintain Diamond. So this will be great if he can sign up at the end of August and then combine his pursuing FFN accumulations while extending his qualification for Diamond.
Right now we've got an award for Regency Club for Kauai using points but would really like to switch it to a standard award for the lower points.
