So I severely doubt you can move points from the Choice Privileges program (which is nearly "worldwide", not just US) to the Nordic Choice program (which is a totally separate program).

You will continue to be able to redeem Choice Privileges points at Nordic Choice properties. We’re aware of a technology glitch that is impacting the visibility of reward nights availability on our website for properties in Scandinavia. We apologize for the inconvenience – this is currently being worked on. Once we have an ETA of when it will be corrected, I will post an update.

Still no resolution and poor customer service follow-up ...you can't book reward rooms, even close in , for hotels that have regular availability. I tried calling customer service and corporate offices and couldn't get through. I posted on Facebook today complaining harshly about this situation and I was told it would be responded to.

The new highest price for award nights in the Nordic Choice region has increased from 25,000 (Choice US) points per night to now be 35,000 points per night.

I've used Choice redemptions in Norway on multiple occasions for over a decade, always in the summer, and it's always been 16k for most properties then. (I didn't bother checking what they were in other seasons.)
