As to my own targets, a couple ones I can hit with 2-3 stays to net the low hanging fruit so to say (e.g. Stay one night, stay in Jan, 2 stays at corp rate). For the rest of the targets that are way too unrealistic, I'm not even trying and I'll put the few other stays onto Hilton to leverage some promos there.

My non-elite list:
1,000: 1 stay 5,000: 5 stays 12,000: Stay in any country in North/South/Central America, Caribbean, Asia Pacific (Except China Mainland, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), the Middle East, Africa and Europe 600: Spend $39 on food or beverages Bonus: 21,400: Complete 3 of the 4 offers 1,000: Book and stay once in January Well my holiday plan next year starts May but it's just so tempting to seek cheap air tickets, do one cheap(ish) weekend excursion in SE Asia or Japan, with some hotel dining, to get 35,000 points. See if my bill fits next year... |
I've just noticed it says in the T & C's for the January bonus offer, this task does not count towards the 'Achievement bonus offer'. As I know people are always querying this

Mine seems very very easy this time
1,000 1 stay 6,000 6 stays 3,400 book twice on the app 29,600 complete 3/3 1,000 January Bonus Offer ttl 41,000 |
If I book the hotel now -- in December -- and stay in early January, does it qualify, or does the booking also have to come January 1 or later? Appreciate any answer, I am not smart enough for ihg fun promotions, thank you

The exception might be if any of your challenges specifically say "Book and Stay..." etc. Otherwise it doesn't specify in the T&Cs anywhere that pre-January bookings will not count. |
I don't like the IHG credit card req, I get this one most of the time. A couple promos ago I put a work stay on this card and got an email about it and a short audit. And I have to make 3/3 tasks so can't skip it.
In the past, I have always had stays already booked count toward the promo. |

How to see my offer details?
I signed up for the Accelerate 2017 program but did not make a print of my offer.
Now, when I want to review the goals set for me, I cannot find the offer details anywhere. In my account I can see the Accelerate 2017 listed, but when I click the button to check on my progress, nothing comes up (obviously, because it is not yet 2017). How else can I see my targets? |

I skipped the 4Q accelerate and got:
3,000 for stay once 22,000 for 11 nights 2,500 for using corporate account twice 6,000 for 4+ nights once 2,400 for Big City (NYC, CHI, LAS, LA, WAS, DAL Metro Areas) 4,000 for weekend (Fri+Sat or Sat+Sun) 1,500 for using credit card 10,000 for achieving 6 out of 7 500 for registering 1,000 for January Total = 52,900 - I will probably go for the 37,400 of that. It is good for the early part of January when other programs have not started their 2017 promotions. (Marriott's ends 1/15.) |

"Book and stay between 1 Jan and 15 April"....should this be taken as written or does it mean that the stay must be in that period but the booking can be before?
The only dates I see in the T&C is the "Each Offer must be completed between 1st January 2017 and 15th April 2017(both dates inclusive) ("Registration")." It does not say book after 1/1. |
