Also, if you have a first "weekend away" with a new love they might be impressed when the clerk says "I see you are a Titanium member Mr. SacTownGuy. Thank you for your loyalty." Maybe that will get you a little status with your new significant other!? Lol.
Women aren't going to start fingerblasting over getting that 3rd floor room and a free Snickers at some podunk Courtyard. You're not George Clooney, and this isn't Up in the Air. An upgrade to widebody J, I could maybe see a mile-high club application. If she's already sharing a hotel room with you, you're in. Neither of you should care about the room.
