Changes in Ritz Carlton points requirements? MC
Does anybody know if Marriott will change the points required to stay at the Ritz Carlton hotels? Today you can book 3 nights at a Tier 1 RC for 100,000 which, after Jan.15th, will be less than doing it at a cat.7 Marriott.
By the way, do you know if you can cancel a RC award certificate and get the points back in full?
It looks like this could be the last good opportunity to reserve a stay at a Ritz Carlton. Do you agree?

There will be no change to the award structure for Ritz Carlton hotels. Some properties may move up in category, but the current redemption chart will not change.
