Marriott Spring promotions have impacted my stays. Based on the past few spring promotions, I have scheduled vacation time and vacations in March instead of February, in order to benefit from any possible promotion. March works for me since I like to also travel in October in the fall. This year’s spring promotion isn’t as strong as last year’s. I won’t whine or complain, but promotions often impact the FT community differently than the average traveler. The 2026 spring promotion on offer is still good for short weekend trips, so I may add Bonvoy stays on a couple of weekend trips in April. If future spring promotions are more like this year’s than last year’s, I probably won’t try to plan spring travel as much within speculative promotion time windows.
