I am on my annual trip to the Fairs in HK and China from second week of October until end of October.. the first portion of my trip involves 7 nights in HK... which will count as my first stay ... so no 3x/4x points. However I am guessing that if after the 17th September I stay 1 night in a cheap HIE, it will count as my first stay, and every stay after that (HK and China in October) will be at the 3x/4x promotion..
Have I got his right??
I have already requalified for Plat next year ... but the massive amount of extra points will pay for a nice wedding anniversary stay in IC Le Grande in Novemeber
cheers
Yup, the pre-emptive mattress run would be a good idea. Or, if this is not possible, check into one hotel in HK/China for the first night (say, the Grand Stamford) and then second night move to another hotel.
