Should you want to get your expectant mother away from the abode for a night or two this year to a close Marriott property or two during the remaining 20 weeks of this year, that would put you that much closer to LTP.

Thanks, but i'm not American, and there are no credit cards available where I live... I earned 10 years of Platinum the hard way by actually staying at properties (and their Covid-era rollovers helped a lot).

Just wondering if there's any way to avoid being downgraded in March next year without hitting 50 nights this year...
