The answer to B4 still has me uncertain about a scenario. It says prior years as a MR Gold will be counted as Platinum in the newly unveiled program in August.
If someone has 9 SPG Platinum years, and 2 MR Gold years, along with 600 SPG nights and 300 MR nights...
Will the new counter look at the combined account as: 11 years Platinum + 900 nights ---> LTPP?
Past years at applicable Marriott Rewards and Ritz-Carlton Rewards Elite Night levels will be counted in the following way:
Previous Member Level New Member Tenure Level
Years at Silver Elite (10 nights) Years count as Silver Elite
Years at Gold Elite (50 nights) Years count as Platinum Elite
Years at Platinum Elite (75 nights) Years count as Platinum Elite
Years at Platinum Premier Elite (unpublished) Years count as Platinum Elite
Past years in SPG Elite levels will be counted in the following way:
Previous Member Level New Member Tenure Level
Years at Gold Preferred (25 nights) Years count as Gold Elite
Years at Platinum Preferred (50/75/100 nights) Years count as Platinum Elite"
The years that members achieved Elite status due to credit cards will count towards Lifetime status. <added by Starwood Lurker 18May18>
