FAQs

A : Double points are only applicable to the base points you’ll earn on a stay.

Exactly my point. When they set expectations, they should fulfill them.

No need to be an idiot. It's clearly printed material that has been leaked. (with a much longer timeframe for printing and distribution)

Or do you think that printed material magically appears worldwide within seconds of the promo being announced?

Just before anyone else posts "I got NOTHING / I can't register NOW", it's worth pausing to consider the possibility that the OP has acquired some promotional material ahead of the official launch date.

Double Points is nice but at the same time it’s not really much of an incentive as it’s dilutive to the overall program if everyone has more points.

People who stay more often or at more expensive properties will get more points. Also the people getting points from credit cards won't benefit.

Requires registration at marriottbonvoy.com/doubletakeGoing to that url immediately redirects to https://www.marriott.com/loyalty.mi, where there is no reference to any such thing.

Has anyone managed to register for this?

At least 2 people have received the mailer, just on this thread.
Can you guys confirm this arrived in the mail, and not obtained some other way?

If so, very poor execution of a campaign...They need to open up registration, if not expand the actual dates of the promo...

Huh? Not everyone has more points, only those who stay get points, and those who stay more get more points. If someone gives you a dollar and someone gives me 5 dollars, it doesn't make mine worth any less. It's not like hotel points are a perfectly elastic supply and demand system either, as the redemption rates are relatively fixed. The point of these programs is not to give out free points as a reward for being a member, but to persuade customers to stay at Marriott more often.

I, for one, will be very happy when this promotion goes live.
