This is really a 'slap in the face' list from PC -- I've never managed to redeem a PB -- just hasn't worked out for me. But there have been some real gems. With the current devaluation, this mediocre list is basically -- this is our new programme -- like it or lump it.

Except maybe Fiji (which, however, is difficult to get to unless you live in NZ or maybe Oz) - is this the first list without any desirable redemption, worldwide, at all, not a single one?!?
Thank you holtju2 for posting the list. IHG's IT seems to need a little longer again

I have also stayed at the Holiday Inn Auckland Airport and posted a video of the room I had on YouTube.

Snagged 2 nights at Candlewood Irvine Spectrum for Friday & Sunday nites (Feb 8, 10 2013). Goes well with our car trip to/from San Diego before my chemo treatments @UC Irvine in Orange,CA on Monday morning 2/10. We have a nice free anniversary stay at the Hyatt Mission Bay for Sat nite (feb 9).
Love that it will only cost 5K/night and we can cook food at the hotel. ^
No San Diego properties but we'll take this one!

How are you folks finding this? Other than Loyalty Lobby I'm still showing the old page when I click specific countries.

A word of warning to the unwary - watch your speculative/tentative bookings for this property as it seems to have a 7 day cancellation policy which is unusual for award stays at IHG properties unless there is some special event on
