For the entire remainder of the year ???????? Seriously ...... this is silly... First the cruise ship at CR and now this ... we have a chunk spg/marriott points (probably lots of people on this board do) and may be thinking about which program we should be loyal to going forward
Just one of the many small clandestine tricks of the coconut shell games these big hotels play, especially Hilton. There are so many ways/options that they can just insert or extract manipulating a pool of things which would seem normal to you (over time) and you would never even notice (the before and after). You ultimately ending up paying more in points or cash or have fewer options worldwide. Most people would never notice such minute things unless they had some historical record of such or were to compare on different devices or carefully utilize analytics. Confuse the guest is the game here and they are masters at it. Burn your points this year because exponentially year over year we are on the rocketing incline of these tactics forcing your points into rapid decline compared to the past 3 years.
