basically 9 ppd if using SPG amex - same payout as the fall '11 promo, the only difference is a minimum stay is in force, in order to take a full advantage of the promotion.

This usually applies to stays in the promo window that have already been reserved right?

It's going to be much higher is Asia isn't participating! All my travel is to Asia over the next 3 months, so if there's no participation, this will be the third promo in a row that hasn't been of any use to me.
