For anyone staying this year yet, there's a "straight to Diamond status" IHG promotion. https://loyaltylobby.com/2022/10/12/...-through-2023/ I was able to go straight to Diamond, but unfortunately don't think I'll be able to earn the 10 nights needed to keep it for our stay in 2023. Wish I was staying this year yet!
