My WorldPerks address is in Asia, since I spend much of the year there. I think the EEP level offerings are similar.
The 90K level isn't super exciting-I like the SWUs at 120K, but couldn't reach it this year.
But here are the 90K choices.

* 10,000 Bonus Miles
* Silver Elite Membership Giveaway
* 50% Off Coach PerkPassSM Award (Within Asia)
* Two (2) US$100 Marriott Bonus Bucks Coupons
* US$200 NWA Discount E-Certificate for nwa.com/asia

Some of them are moderately interesting--the SE Give-away especially might be fun as an Xmas gift!
Also, are Marriott BonusBucks used like cash, or are they heavily restricted?
I could always use a PerkPass Award--though in Y.

Thanks!

Well the 10k will at least make your MR really worth it from a mile per $$ standpoint. I always take the 10Kas the other stuff just does not interest me.
