Club Carlson Program Changes eff. Mar 15, 2014

Main changes: ( I love the fact award nights will qualify for tier status...add this with the 2nd free award night and it will be easy to attain Concierge level)

Club Carlson Members can now earn Gold Points on food and beverages purchased during Award Nights, if charged to the room
Our Gold Points bonus for booking a stay online will now be offered only on a promotional basis, so watch for upcoming opportunities

Elite Benefits:

Club Carlson members will be able to achieve Elite status faster – Eligible Stays and Award Nights will now both count toward Elite status
Concierge Elite members will still receive a 75% Gold Points bonus on Eligible Stays, and will still have access to the Concierge Elite reservation number on the back of the Concierge Elite member cards. Our 24/7 Global Concierge Service will be discontinued effective March 1st, 2014.
The Gold Points bonus on Eligible Stays will change to 35% for Gold Elite members and 15% for Silver Elite members



Some European properties go up to 70K points. Some property redemptions went down as well.

Club CarlsonSM still offers a “Faster Way to a Free Night Stay!” Members earn 20 Gold Points® for every dollar spent at participating Carlson Rezidor hotels, and Award Nights start at just 9,000 Gold Points.

Ways to Redeem Points:

Club Carlson members will now have a choice of room types when redeeming Gold Points for Award Nights.

Members will be able to see additional room descriptions and amenities during the redemption process. Room types, availability and amenities will vary by hotel
Club Carlson will now offer an enhanced variety of additional gift cards at top merchants, with new redemption levels starting at 7,000 points
