Room upgrade for Gold: reserver or guest?
I am planning a couple of award stays for next year when I expect to be Gold and my wife will have lost her current Gold status. I have very few points while she has lots. If she makes are reservation now in my name (she will be staying in the room as well), at the time of check-in, how is the Gold upgrade determined? Will I receive it for checking in as a Gold member, even though the reservation was paid for from her points account? Or do the points need to come from my account in order to qualify for an upgrade?
