Hi William, if a reservation is being made within the 5 day stay window (or even if a reservation has already been made prior to 5 days of stay), can one see which suites or select premium rooms are available to book online (within 5 days) that have been assigned by the respective properties and that qualify for the SPG Suite Night Award? I would imagine this would be live availabile inventory? If the answer is yes, then is it fair to say if one selects that specific suite or premium room online, he/she will receive confirmation within the 5 day window? TIA.
Members will be given a selection of upgraded rooms,including select standard suites to choose from at the time of request. Five days before arrival, the system will begin checking to see if the requested upgrade is available. If it, is you'll be notifed that the upgrade is confirmed. If it isn't, the system will continue checking up to the day before arrival when you will get a final status report.
