I booked Canary Wharf Marriott for 314,000 points for the first 10 nights of this year. Now I can’t find 10 nights for less than 444,000 points. As a leisure stayer with a tight budget I am lucky to make that amount in a year. Places that used to be 60,000 for 5 nights have doubled. And in the UK the pound is weak against the dollar. When it is strong I can make more points.
