Hello all and Marriott Bonvoy Lurker, status challenge is totally new to me and I have 2 questions. I’d like to understand how it works regarding the next levels once someone successfully completes the challenge. Let me try to explain myself with an example:

For instance, if she has 10 nights already, and the challenge is 20 nights to reach Platinum, once she completes the challenge and reaches 30 nights in total she will become Platinum for the rest of the current year and the following calendar year, and plus 2 months. In order for her to reach Titanium this year, does she then need to add 45 nights (75-30) on top of her 30, or, would the 25 nights (75-50) – the mileage between platinum and titanium – suffice? I guess it is the former, correct?

My second question is: Can one request a challenge aiming at a specific level? In other words, does one have the option/luxury of requesting a challenge “not for Platinum but for Titanium”?

Thank you!
