With that also the confirmation number has changed from the one originally in my Expedia booking to a new one.
I know that reservations booked through Expedia usually do not allow for MR points, however since a few days my reservation shows "This stay will be credited to your Marriott Rewards account." at the bottom - just like any other stay I have. Does this mean that the hotel rebooked me and I will get points for this stay, or is this just normal for Expedia-Bookings when they show up on your account and the points will still not be credited?
Any first-hand experience would be appreciated!
Greetings - Dirk
P.S.: I booked the package because the price of flight&hotel was the same as the flight alone - so the hotel night is basically free...;-)!
No, when you book through a third party you earn no points for your stay.
