This likely is not a positive development and not what I was expecting! I have over 1.5 mio points in the US program since the programs were split. Most points earned via stays in Europe and via the now discontinued credit card. I have no desire to use these points for stays in the US or regions under Radisson Americas (and definitely not in any Choice properties in the Americas) so if the plan is that our RR points become Choice points I will need to move them out to the international Radisson program ASAP. I’m sure they are going to drag their feet telling us exactly what their plans are for the RR Americas program so I’ll likely wait a while and if I start feeling uncomfortable I’ll transfer to the International RR program. I guess there is some hope that Choice will work with Radisson International or even buy them as well but who knows if that will happen.
