Not counting hotel credit cards or stay X get a free night promos....in my experience you''ll earn more points faster with Priority Club Rewards "if" you use FT. Unlike other programs that are often targeted, PCR can often allow you to collect under several points promo's at once. To maximize value you can save rewards and used the Points Breaks for 5000 pts (doing 2 nights this weekend at the IC Yorkville Toronto for 10K and saving $360+ ) or convert into Amex Stay anywhere cards like we did with Fairmont Banff Springs & Lake Louise. I've dabbled in other programs but always come back to PCR to generate the best return....of course I'll take points from any vendor so sign up for them all anyway.
