Why is everyone unhappy?
After just one stay you will get double points.
No jumping through hoops, or changing travel patterns.
You didn't really think it would last that you could pick up 10k points basically for free during each accelerate?
i was kind of thinking this myself. I’m fairly new to IHG. Most of my business has been with Marriott and to a lesser degree SPG. Double points is typical of what I would expect from a Marriott mega bonus. So maybe I have been conditioned differently, but when I got double points up to 30k, I kind of thought that was just fine. Others seem to be implying that this is stingy by typical IHG standards.
