if u're canada-based, have thai points that are about to expire and can't find a decent way of using them for flights or upgrades, then using them for a hotel stay is an option. though the choice is rather limited and not terrific value, it does include the delta chelsea in toronto at 24k points. u'll have a year to use ur hotel award certificate from its date of issue.
