I kind of feel like anyone who asks, calls, emails, every week for every stay is tacky. If 40 stays a year are business travelling alone, and 5 are leisure with companions, save it for those.

What I think is extremely tacky: Marriott properties not honoring elite bennies, such as not upgrading Golds/Plats when there IS availability.
Cheers.

Yup! Totally agree. I can count on one hand the number of times I've been "automatically" upgraded. 99 percent of the time I have to ask.

This of course is the ultimate IMO. I'd be very content to be on the CL level 40 weeks a year then have 2 or 3 stays a year in a suite guaranteed (or a low cost purchasing opportunity). I think other chains have something similar but I'm locked into Marriott now for life...

I don't see how that differs from what I see in the US.

I am upgraded about 80% of the time actually. Usually, I state, "Platinum upgrades appreciated," in the virtual concierge if there is an option. Otherwise, I just ask at the desk. I did that yesterday.

As a Platinum Elite member, your next visit to any Marriott International hotel in Asia Pacific could offer a pleasant surprise a complimentary suite upgrade when a suite is available.
Difference is std upgrade outside of asia to suite upgrade in asia
