Gold Lifetime qualification under existing SPG criteria.
I currently stand at 244 nights / 8 years status in SPG (55 nights / 5 yrs status in MR). For rest of '18, current plan is to stay at least another 5 nights (4 of which are reward nights) at legacy SPG properties and 5 paid nights at legacy M properties. Goal is to reach LT Gold under existing SPG criteria before Dec 31, 2018.
two Q (I did a search of the forum but could not find a clear answer):
- To qualify under existing SPG criteria until end of '18 for LFG (250 nights / 5 yrs status), do I need to stay at SPG-legacy properties or will nights at legacy M properties also count ? If the former, I need 1 more SPG legacy property night (np).
- Should I hold off combining accounts until I fulfill the SPG criteria for LFG ? If yes, I assume the nights in M properties would not count to reach the 250 nights requirement (if they count at all, see Q1)
