Created WIKI Mar2017 purely to add the "new" IHG PB List URL as I can't find by screen navigation since IHG changed the reservation screens etc, and the old url if saved no longer works either.

Just got fed up trying to find , much easier to store in wiki, hope this helps others

SCUBACCR

Use this URL for "Live" PB Listing:
https://www.ihg.com/rewardsclub/content/us/en/redeem-rewards/pointbreaks.html

The PREVIEW list usually appears on IHG's blog first

Can I specify either Tampa area or JAX? I need a long weekend getaway and really spent my existing point balance down for an upcoming UK trip. Spousal Unit is not a fan of Orlando, and South Florida is too far to drive for us.

Wonder if it's going to be HIX-Enterprise Alabama or Candlewood-Enterprise. If anyone keeps count, it seems like one of those two ends up on the list about 75% of the time.

Right up until the end of April. That's making a more consistent three month booking window.

Looks promising, since I have to visit Frankfurt early this year and also Krakow!

I stay at that Frankfurt Airport HI quite a bit. It's not really close to anything except the airport, but they do have a decent bar and a good (though pricy) breakfast.

The HI Silom is my least favorite of the HI/HIX in Bangkok, but at 4,500 it's still 50% off and a good deal!
The HI FRA is a bargain. Indigo Krakow is good location, Krakow is beautiful - worth going just for the rate!
Let's see what else is on the list...

I'd have a cheeky fiver on Holiday Inn Prague Airport making this list, given the picture at the top of the standard IHG blog preview page has been changed to the exterior of that hotel...

Don't laugh but before I looked at the IC in Santo Domingo I looked at plane tickets to Krakow!
That I would definetely swing before SD.

So is it going live in a couple hours or just a preview?

Per MMS, he says the "the sale goes live on Jan 30, 2017."

He links to Points with a Crew, who says it goes live today... Jan 27.

Hope it just goes live today. Better chance of grabbing a room.

Yeah, lots of people prefer this. I kind of know what I'm looking for already.

If we plan better, we are less likely to hold unnecessary reservations. So, it works out better for everyone.

They still should find a way to let higher status people get maybe a 24 hour head start than the next tier, etc.
