I don't think Delta does. There's a page listed in the t&c that shows eligible brands and Delta is not listed. And to be safe, I switched a Delta stay to a CY (downgrade, I know, but I'll take a free night).

Received A and C. No email was received but both offers were visible on my MR account's Promotions page and were both accepted.

A/C - Gold

When I do login on marriott.com, the promotions show up. However they do not show up in my account when I login via marriott.de

Registered for both!

(Note that I'm platinum).

Initially I wasn't impressed with the new megabonuses, but then discovered that I was able to register for both. I'm not very interested in cat 1-5 certificates that expire in six months, but the combo of points and stays might be worthwhile, especially if the unlocked points bonus bumps the max to 45k (currently the advertised bonus is 30k which is 15k less than the megabonus that expired this month). Would be great to get a free 45k and some certificates on top of that. Might be wishful thinking, we'll have to wait and see.

Exactly. I usually forget I have them. I have a Marriott cc certificate now that will probably expire on me.

Definitely a YMMV thing. My hotel stays are almost exclusively 1 night. This promo will get me to stay at Marriotts for 2 nights so I can get the cert for later use.

If one has a stay which starts in January but goes into February, will it count for the promotion?

If you check into a hotel on Jan 15 and check out on Feb 1, you will get no credit, as you have not stayed a night in Feb. If you check in on Jan 15 and check out on Feb 2, you will get one night's credit, as you have stayed one night in Feb; the night of Feb 1.

).

I got A (and only A)
Low silver with Marriott at this point. Gold with Hilton.
I'm considering moving 2 stays in the period to Marriott. This promotion seems to be better than the double points with Hilton, only Hilton hotels are better situated for me.
Still in doubt...

My email from MR


Your first offer is to receive one free night reward valid at hotel categories one through five after completing two paid stays.
When you have successfully completed the first offer, your second offer will unlock.
You will earn 15,000 points after 20 paid nights. You can then earn 3,000 points for each additional night. You can earn up to a total of 30,000 points with your second offer.
The third offer will unlock when you have successfully completed both offers one and two.

Hey all...

I admittedly have not read through 16 pages of posts, but referencing the summary of offers made available... just to confirm, there is no B&C combination that's been made to people, correct?

Has anyone tried calling in to get that?

Thanks.
