Even if the same hotel is willing to split into individual contracts hence, separate postings?
RafKa's question did not specify the same location so I didn't answer to that effect. |

I haven't tried, was merely giving my experience to the question asked. To clarify, 1)

yes I've been able to get multiple meetings counted on the same day, 2) no I have not attempted to do so at the same location.
RafKa's question did not specify the same location so I didn't answer to that effect. I'm currently doing multiple meeting on the same day at the same hotel. Each had a different contract, and each one is being charged to my card separately, so it seems positive so far. No nights have posted yet though, so we'll see. (No idea why that shows up as two quotes, its just the post above mine though. Sorry!) |
Update on my meeting status.
So far i completed all 8 meetings from 4th - 7th Aug. Now its just waiting for them to be posted. The various properties confirmed via email that they to do so between 7 - 10 days after the event. (With the exception of 1 property who took my money but refused crediting the points before i did not show up) My next and main worry would be hoping they can be posted on or before 17th Aug. Who knows what could happen if gets posted after 18th! |

1. You guys are nuts! and
2. With 17 years on Flyertalk how did I manage not to know about this loophole!? I was worried how I would manage to keep Plat for the 6th year - now no longer. Thanks. Mike |
If a property is really on the ball, the nights and points can post within one business day.

I posted over in this other thread about Rewarding Events and August 18th program merger, but the actual new Marriott Rewards combined program Terms and Conditions seem very clear that only the first meeting will earn 10 meetings per night and subsequent meetings will not. Since a couple of days ago LoyaltyLobby claims to have spoken to Marriott reps (a spokesperson) and have this explicit quote:
“If a member books on 8/10 and their event is 8/30 they will earn based on the post 8/18 T&C’s.” To be clear: Read my other post here which excerpts the new Marriott Rewards detailed Terms and Conditions, and not the members.marriott.com page that we've debated back and forth for over a month now. You can still disagree on the interpretation of language, but it's a new piece of information. |

The verbiage I've seen definitely does not indicate anything of the sort. It's completely devoid of information which can be construed in myriad ways.
I had seen this blog post and agree with your assessment here but the quote is just that and not released new T&C. Also see this finding in said new T&C on Rewarding Events made by @CJKatl. |

Appears no real change, other than number of guest rooms

Hi, does anyone know if these nights are eligible for the 50 night and 75 night SNA / Gift option benefit?

Yes, they do count for reaching those goals. As do reward nights, CC nights, and just about any night that is not comp'd (aka casino gifted nights) has been my experience.
I am considering chasing this from scratch. Not sure if I can justify $800 USD. For the people who have chased this deal that don't usually have many nights, do you guys value the PP status at $800+ personally? I am a personal traveller and do about 4 weeks a year of vacation (annual leave), and usually visit Asia. Logically breakfast and lounge access would be $100+ per night normally? |
