(depending upon current status) to MPG PP (with your current LT status) to MPG LTPP after the end of the year. This gives members until the end of the year to complete any planned status runs under legacy rules.
If you post your current status in the two programs a more specific answer can be given. For example, I am currently LTG in both programs with 740 and 494 LT nights. I expect to be MPG LTG in both accounts and after I merge my accounts. However, I expect to be MPG LTPP come January.
Hi Roger
How do you know Aug. 18th will be the day for SPG lifetime plat members becoming LTPP? I don't believe Marriott has told any of us that SPG members will receive this benefit on 8-18. I hope you are correct!
