www.priorityclub.com/lastminute is up and running, and from what I can make out, we should see some hotels either today, Wed or Thurs.

I just looked at this for the first time,
and for a minute thought it also said something about the phase of the moon..
...but finally figured out that it is today, as above posts said..
"Redeem points for Last Minute Reward Nights on the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday proceeding the first full weekend of every month. Then choose to stay that Friday, Saturday and/or Sunday nights. You decide when to use your Last Minute Reward Nights."
...wait a minute...looks like they decided, not me !
So it is just one weekend a month....
Oh well...I still love IHG for the PB's I have in 2012.

After checking the link posted above and reading the linked page......
For June 2011, it looks like you would book on Tue May 31, Wed June 1, Thurs June 2, for stays on or including Fri June 3, Sat June 4, Sun June 5.
I think most of us were hoping/expecting the new "last minute" feature would be live today Tue May 3, Wed May 4, Thur May 5 for bookings this weekend Fri May 6, Sat May 7, Sun May 8.

When PC announced this new program, they said it was supposed to start May 6-8. http://boardingarea.com/blogs/loyalt...reward-nights/
Thanks for the link.
I wonder if they changed their mind due to the pb slight extension?

I think it's more likely that their IT team can't get it to work right.

I don't think the two are that directly-linked.

Could be just like they couldn't get the cheaters out of the daily question game a bit back..
