Welcome bonus stacking
Hi, I got a targeted welcome bonus promotion of 7500 points. 2500 bonus on first stay and 5000 bonus on 2nd stay.
Im wondering if these can be stacked with other things like the BRG program and the more than one room per stay policy.
To clarify say I apply for a BRG claim and its approved, will the bonus still apply ?
Also if I book 2 rooms as part of my stay, will it be counted as 2 stays or as 1 ? I read that this policy changed recently and it should count as 2 stays. FWIW can this stack with the welcome bonus mentioned above ?
Thanks in advance

Lucky you.
Yes, BRG claimed stays count for promotions. You should also receive 2 stay credits if you book 2 rooms at the same hotel - however I wouldn't want to claim with 100% certainty that you would earn 2 of your required promo stays that way.
