I think I've finished all my IC & IHG travel this year. Will be interesting to see if I get RA again - stats are on the cusp, although my bookings are likely above average profitable for them - most are short notice and higher than typical rates. I have a suspicion that profitability is part of their assessment, and may account for the variation we see in renewals versus spend/night stats.
- IC nights = 50 (total IHG = 64)
- 4 different ICs, 3 countries, 2 continents
- IC qualifying spend = $10,311 (total IHG = $12,060)
For completeness, albeit irrelevant to RA renewal, I've earned 329,246 IHG points.
