Note that some targeted promos have a variable expiration date depending when the member activates the promo, which under certain circumstances could allow you to choose the timeframe for the promo that is most advantageous for your planned travel. Read the T&Cs about expiration timeline carefully before activating any targeted promo.

PP with 7 nights so far and zero promo. I called and asked about getting one. And I was told I wasn't eligible for ANY promos. Then I asked what the qualifications were. The agent told me there were 2 - whether you had either the Chase Marriott or SPG Amex (I have both) and how many points you have already (I have about 220,000). So I guess I'm too good a customer to offer a bonus to!
i don't think this has anything to do with having the credit card or how many points you have....

Nothing here, but I received the double elite nights promo two years running in 2017 and 2018, so very happy to let others have a turn

For those suggesting this is some kind of exercise is sophisticated analytics....I believe you’re giving too much credit. Just as likely to be completely random . There has been no rhyme nor reason to it in the past.

To calm down the disappointed customers, they should have just called it a bonus sweepstakes from the start. "Dear FlyerTalk member, congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that you have been selected as a winner in the Marriott Promotion Lottery 2019! Your prize can be redeemed by completing the following terms:"

I can't quite understand the wisdom of launching a complex, targeted promotion like this when all the information you need to make informed targeting decisions is scattered over the MR, the SPG, or both, program databases.
And doing it the week before the Bonvoy program integration too. Haven't they got more important things to focus on ?
Time will tell, but wouldn't it be better to mark the introduction of Bonvoy next week with a simple, attractive, global promotion ? Perfect opportunity, too, to ditch the jaded Megabonus and do something fresh instead.

It seems like people who have already stayed a lot ytd or have a bunch of future bookings got nothing. I think this naturally makes people hold back bookings and if the promotion is not coming or the rates have become unfavorable Marriott is losing out on that business...
