Sol Meliá is a European hotels rewards program, but it's listed as an Middle East/Asia/Oceania airline program.

Why is Rydges' Priority Guest Rewards not included in the hotel section for Oceania?

Why is GHA (500 hotels, 32 brands, 76 countries) not listed in its own right? (It is listed in the Outstanding Benefit section, but as "Kempinski Hotels GHA Discovery", which is a good way to hide it from those who've never heard of Kempinski.)

We will make an effort to add Rydges for next year.

And we are correcting GHA as we speak! Thank you.

EVA Air's program was renamed from Evergreen Club to Infinity MileageLands. It still shows Evergreen Club. I didn't come up with the name so don't shoot the messenger

so how do i remove that notice?

edit - try to make it go away by sorting alphabetically and voting despite having no interest in doing so, it's still there. this surely isn't right.

edit again - upon closing/opening browser it seems to have gone away. still should be an option to just kill it at the outset

further edit - on returning a couple of hours later, it's back

It's past noon in California and the ballot still seems to be open.

I still see the "remember to vote" icon at the top of pages and can apparently click into it, although I've already voted in all categories so I can't go very far with it.

Now the ballot seems to be shut down. The reminder icon has disappeared.
