My Renewal is in March, I have had the card for several years. My statement closed March 8 and my free night for next year appeared in my account today. It has an expiration of March 11, 2017 and not March 31, as it has always done in the past. This sucks for me, because I always use it sometime in the last two weeks of March in Tokyo of the year of expires. I will burn it elsewhere, sometime in the coming year, but to me this is just another small "enhancement".
