There you have it.. three more properties prior to Aug 18 that you could not book on a total of six already identified for nine subtractions over several hundred additions. Those three were former SPG so you couldn't book before Aug 18 either .. they just happened to increase enough so you still can't book them.

Category creep had bit me in the past few years as my former cat 5 properties became cat 6 in the old program. I think at least one of them did slip back to cat 4. So I am all for hating on the program but this particular change was positive.. well until the peak off peak stuff makes it even more complicated.

That being said I am still swapping credit cards to get a new up to 35k cert instead.
