New Take Two Promotion
 

or should I say "Earn a Free Weekend!" promotion

On the Marriott site:

https://member.marriottrewards.com/secure/WN.asp

With Marriott Rewards, enjoy a bonus weekend, plus get rewarded for your travel!

Earning your free weekend is easy! Just make five separate paid stays at any of more than 2,300 Marriott hotels worldwide between March 15 and June 15, 2003. You’ll receive one certificate good for two complimentary weekend nights at more than 2,100 Marriott hotels worldwide. This free weekend is in addition to your regular earnings, bonuses, and other privileges you receive as a member of Marriott Rewards.

Your 2 free weekend nights are redeemable at over 2,100 category 1, 2, 3, or 4 hotels through December 30, 2003.

Not a bad deal at all.. if only they would go to Category 5/6 http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

This bonus seems to have the added restriction of only getting one certificate, therefore I assume you'd have to use the 2 nights consecutively at the same property.

Thats cool, I can live with this promo.. gives me something to do in May..

...and this time it's 5 stays for two nights.

Thanks for the heads up!

See, this is why I love FT! I'm heading out to VIE & SZG on Mon. and will have four paid stays as originally planned. But now I will take one of those nights and stay at a different hotel and make it five paid stays to get the 2 free nights.

Yes, a big thanks for the heads up as I might not have noticed it while packing this weekend.

tcook,

I don't believe this promo starts til mid March.

Hint Hint....look for other new promos starting around April...the MR folks have been getting alot of heat and have been told to stop playing defense and start playing offense

Thanks Socrates, I was trying to figure out where to place my Spring Stays (what chain) since I will have met my Hilton Diamond Requirments by then. MR appears to be beating SPG to the punch so they will get my biz.

thanks for all your work on here

Only problem now: there's still March coming before April ...
Thanks, socrates.

Very nice. Thank you. Wonder why I didn't receive an email on this one though.

Thanks flyerwife. I'm not usually tripped up by the fine print, but was this time. I'll only have one paid stay within that time period, so won't make supreme effort of time and money to make the 5 paid nights this time. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/frown.gif

Nothing has gone out on it yet (and unfortunately it's been so long since I heard what they were planning I can't remember exactly what the promotions were)

I'll have SPG Platinum wrapped up by April, so Marriott, give me a promotion that encourages me to stay more than 5 times and maybe I'll drop HHonors Diamond and go back to Marriott Platinum. At least that way I'm just Platinum through and through http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

2 consecutive free nights, but this time Thursday freebies are allowed.
But 5 paid STAYS insead of 3 for the X14?
