When will my 2021 qualifying year of Elite status be applied to my Account so I can track my path to Lifetime Elite Status?
As part of our regular process, Members receive their qualifying year towards Lifetime Elite status in one of two ways:
- If you maintain the same Elite level that you started the year with, your Qualifying Year of Elite status will be applied to your Account in January of the following year. Please Note: In November 2021, when we extended the Elite status that Members earned in 2019 or 2020, Members received their 2021 Qualifying Year of Elite status.
- If you achieve a higher Elite level during the year than the previous year, your Qualifying Year for the new, higher level will be applied at the time of achievement. Please Note: If you achieved a higher Elite level during 2021, your 2021 qualifying year of Elite status, was applied at the time of achievement.
If you maintain the same Elite level for 2022, your 2022 year of Elite status will be applied to your Account in January 2023. If you achieve a higher Elite level during 2022, your 2022 year of tenure for the new, higher level will be applied at the time of achievement.
Examples:
- A Member achieved Gold Elite in 2019 and enjoyed the status in 2020. They received their 2020 year of Gold Elite status in July 2020 when we extended their status. Due to status extensions, the Member received their 2021 year of tenure in November 2021 when they their status was extended to February 2023.
- A Member achieved Platinum Elite in 2020 and enjoyed the status in 2021. They received their 2021 year of Platinum status in November 2021 when they their status was extended to February 2023.
- A Gold Elite Member achieved Platinum Elite in April 2021; the Platinum year of Elite status for 2021 was applied upon achievement (in April 2021).

I finally got my missing +1 added; currently balancing correctly at 9 Years Platinum.
I did open a ticket back in 2018 for the missing years, but it never really resolved until now (and I didn't chase it).
Let's hope this sticks and isn't another IT muk-up.

Just a quick question, is it possible to earn elite nights and point for room at two properties on same night?
Situation is that I will have a week long trip in Seoul (10 Feb to 20 Feb) but I will head to Busan for 2 nights in between (14 Feb to 16 Feb). Too lazy to pack again and check out, so I am planning to just carry a small bag to Busan and book for another stay there. So will I also get the elite nights/ points from the 2 nights I stay in Busan?
Thanks

Click here. Click here. This is what you're looking for.
In short, the answer is "no" but the situation can be worse and more complicated than you may imagine. Welcome to a world of pain. Best to read this FAQ and thread and continue the discussion there if it's not clear.

When it happened to me on January 1 this year I had a surprise knock at the door and there was a troupe of dancing girls with a marching band along with fireworks and a Chinese dragon. The Krug Champagne flowed freely for about two hours for my extended family and we were all then invited to the nearby Ritz Carlton's Club Lounge for dinner and more drinks deep into the evening.
Or maybe I dreamed all that and I didn't even get an email acknowledging my once-in-a-lifetime change of Lifetime status... Congratulations. You can take it easy now.

I do this often. I need 4 nights but book 5 because of the 5th night free benefit (Hilton and Marriott). I love it because it give me a guaranteed very late check out.
When I did a couple weeks ago, was leave at 7:30pm. At 6pm I went to the front desk and explained to them that I will be leaving extremely early in the morning and can I please review my portfolio now, she printed it and I was happy with what I saw. I then loaded my car and then thanked her for making my early morning departure so much smoother. At 7:30 I walked out, drove home, and at 7am I checked out from my bed.
There is no benefit to actually checking out early.
