Was on the Starwood forum and a little suprised at how many fellow Flyertalkers who are/were MR elite members that have become so unhappy that they are/have defected to SPG.
I should add that I travel just enough most years to make it to the MR Silver level and have been happy with the overall MR benefits and promo's compared to the other chains. And having stayed at many brands, I prefer the overall Marriott experience over the others. That's why I keep going back, after all.
But is there really a growing level of frustration with the higher MR elite members that could turn a trickle into a flood? And is anyone at Marriott doing anything to answer these concerns?</font>
Short answer.....yes
