1. what is the minimum spend / maximum earn?
for example this similar offering -
http://www.hotels.com/customer_care/...merewards.html
property priced at USD40 or more...After you have stayed a total of 10 nights, we will automatically credit you with a free night at any partner property offered by hotels.com, up to USD400 in value
2. why does it make it sound like they removed confirmed upgrades from access/unlimited?
there are blackout dates.
they only do 1 free night because theyre trying to increase revenue.
id tend to assume cashback would be better. like the site
Raffles has mentioned and Mr and Mrs Smith.
