For the 7 stays (which will get me to 25), I can do C+P x 3 rooms on a Wed (3), then a Friday (3) to net 6 stays and then just one more on another night to hit 25 stays, right?
That will get me to 491 nights, so I just need 10 more nights, again doing 3 x rooms, it is 3 "visits" (3x3=9)?
Thanks!
As stated in
http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/starw...um-status.html you need 500 nights AND 10 years of platinum status for LTP.
Yes, if those 7 stays of 1 night each will put you at 491 nights, then any combination of 10 more nights should put you over the top for LTP, presuming you have the years. If you have cheap properties available to you, maybe consider changing some of those 7 stays to 2 night stays and just leave after the first night and get there quicker.
