  • Scenario 1: I spend an additional $8000 during the promo period and cross the next 5k marks at 15k and 20k. I receive 6 nights for my 8k in spend during the promo period. I'm now at 21k at the end of the promo period and when I spend the next 4k, I'll get the standard 2 nights.
  • Scenario 2: I spend the same $8000 during the promo. The spend is treated separately from my running counter and I receive 3 nights for 5k in spend. At the end of the promo period, the remaining 3k gets added back to the standard "running" counter
I assume that scenario 1 is how things will work because scenario 2 would be extremely confusing and difficult to track. If scenario 1 is under effect, then those who happen to be close to the next 5k mark will benefit the most from this promo

I was wondering about this too. The only answer I've found is from View from the Wing, which says that the counter is the same and the date you cross the $5k line is what determines if you get 2 or 3 nights.
