Agree that the cards look good, but I assume this replaces our existing PC cards as well so you may need it to show something about Platinum status on the card for non-IC hotels.

The card is gold or silvery to indicate whether the member has Gold or Platinum status.
The systems seem good at getting membership information across and I have not had a single stay where my status has not shown in the system at the hotel , so seems a lot of worry about nothing.

Is it in US airports, luggage handling staff only holds the luggage tage to lift a bag? :P

I thought just me! Every time I go to US, I lose one of my luggage tage (PC/RA and VS). And this only happens in the US, never happened in Far East although my flight ratio is about 1:8 between these two regions, very strange.

Anyone notice the Customize Member Card link? I am not sure if this is new, but I have never noticed it before.
We know there are other loyalty programs out there, and as a savvy traveler you probably belong to a number of them. But wouldn't it be nice if you didn't have all of those membership cards filling up your wallet?

Whether it’s your frequent flyer programs, your car rental membership or another hotel loyalty program, you can now include all of this information on the back of your Priority Club Rewards card.

Seems like a nice idea.

I would hope that the people they hired to redesign the materials realized that the "old" ambassador luggage tags were prone to falling off if you brushed up against them in the wrong way.
They looked cool with the leather and metal, but those fastening snaps were quite flimsy. I lost one on a carryon rollaboard when I flew on an RJ, since the bag had to be stowed in the cargo area. Now I only sport one RA tag on my laptop bag.
I still have one of those indestructible plastic Platinum PC tags with the plastic loop attachment on my checkin suitcase. It's seen better days, but it even survived the Albany, NY AA luggage handlers several times
