Early days, but so far did Marriott seriously screw us all over again with a narrow view of what constitutes a night towards the gift options?
Anything to cheat people out of their benefits and money? This was already coded in with greed. No rewarding events, cc nights etc despite them being elite qualifying nights.

Nothing here either. Lifetime PPE with 84 nights, 46 stayed, the rest rollover and CC nights.
I spoke with someone at MR the other day who told me only STAYED nights counted towards receiving 50/75 night choice benefits. No CC, rollover, etc. One data point...so take it for what it's worth. However if that's the official position, it's very disappointing.

Is this explicit in the T&C, with something like a different definition of eligible nights for the gift versus the definition for elite qualification? I don't recall noticing anything like this. OTOH, I'm generally in favor of minimizing how many people get SNAs (and stopping those from the SPG side from getting more than ten this year) if they're not being given to LTPs and LTPPs.
They use the terminology qualifying nights, Elite Night Credits and stayed nights interchangably in some instances which adds to the confusion.
Regardless, it shouldnt take a lawyer to decipher how these benefits are obtained.

This suite night has been a mess. As others have stated, some folks received the gift but then can't actually choose anything. The bigger issue is what qualifies as a night. I have 164 nights yet still can't even qualify for the 75 night gift. I'm assuming it's because they are ONLY counting paid nights but I think that's ridiculous that award nights or CC nights wouldn't count as it all counts towards status requirements.

Had over fifty rollover nights alone this year, but less than fifty butt in bed. Doesn't look like we're eligible for SNAs. Have a week's travel package in a month, we'll see if anything changes, but it could really be cash nights only

It's not showing up in my account directly, but:
--I went to https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/member-benefits.mi and clicked on "view benefits"
--which took me to https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/mem...num-premier.mi
--where I signed in
--and that took me to a page that congratulated me and told me to choose my award.
I didn't choose, so it might have booted me out had I done so, but it's worth trying if you think you should have a link in your account but don't. (Actually, I went to the platinum page first and it told me I had to choose 50 night before 75 night....)
