There is not. As far as I can tell, this statement was a footnote only provided to the bloggers when they were provided the information regarding the category changes. TPG was the only blogger to initially post about it. The links the public have been provided are:
h
ttps://points-redemption.marriott.com/category-change
and
https://lacek.hs.llnwd.net/e2/marrio...ogram=marriott
Neither of these links suggest the change. The first link even still states:
- Save up to 25,000 points per night when you book future Category 8 hotels at the Category 7 rate until March 5, 2019.
So Marriott is still advertising the ability to save points by booking before 3/5. The consider points advanced reservations to be confirmed bookings so I’m not sure why they are treating them any differently.
You would think Marriott would directly contact people with points advance reservations but I suspect the are purposely trying to take advantage of those customers.
