cawhite60156, did they mention anything about lounge access? I wonder if they will upgrade to RBC rooms
Tried to book the RBC offer, but got an error. Looks like you'll be the first to check-in on the 26th. ^ ...

CGK, Guttorm is heading up to LHR (SQ) tomorrow. He'll be in NYC on 16th (UA F), and then to NRT (NH New Biz) on 19th. I'm looking forward to reading his trip report when he's done with it all.

He should max his RTW to 39,000 miles so that he can go to Bali DO, and he can add SYD for later...I played around with starwood bookings, I can book RBC special offers but only with 2 single beds though. I went to Westin Bali Nusa Dua site, and clicked on the "Special Offers" which one of them would be RBC.

I'm going to call the PLT Concierge later to change my Sat night back to the Westin and will ask if they know anything about lounge access. I was surprised to hear from them, they were just acknowledging the special requests/comments I made when I set up the new reservation on line.

KuDeTa restaurant for Friday night dinner will be about 25 km from these hotels. Bumbu Bali for Saturday night will be quite near.

Regarding your question pertaining the Platinum privileges, I am delighted to inform you that as platinum member you are entitled for :
I did let them know that there would be 3-4 PLTs and at least a couple GLDs staying there in the same group with me, some for one night & some for two (I couldn't remember the exact numbers, but figured that would be close enough). So they've been forwarned!
And thanks for posting the photos!

Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to wing this one 
Maybe I should also go get my head checked as I'm passing up an opportunity to fly SQ Raffles LAX-SIN-DPS-SIN-SFO.
I guess next time.
