Hey, if anyone actually follows through and reduces or eliminates their HH stays, there will be more upgrade opportunities for the rest of us - even with NOR1.
I don't think so.
Hyatt and PC both actually improved their programs over the last two years. SPG stays about even - they adjusted some properties but the value of points remains strong because of cash+points option.
Hilton and Marriott programs are by a wide margin the worst of the bunch.
Good luck with your NOR1 though.
