As a reminder, members who achieve Lifetime status through either the legacy Marriott Rewards, The Ritz-Carlton Rewards, or SPG as well as the one-time offering of Platinum Premier Elite Lifetime status (750 nights and 10 years at Platinum Elite Status) will be reflected in their accounts in January 2019, as we will perform a year-end true-up for these members. We believe that all night totals are now accurate. For information on our new Elite Status tiers and criteria for eligibility please visit: https://www.marriott.com/loyalty/member-benefits.mi

The Elite Status name change on 2/13 will apply to Lifetime Status, too. Lifetime Platinum Premier Elite will be called Marriott Bonvoy Lifetime Titanium Elite.

This does not affect the timelines for lifetime status.

Let’s face it. Great names have never really been Marriott’s thing.
It all started with Hot Shoppes. That’s corny as well. But they were a crazy success. Let’s hope the same for Bonvoy.

Oh man, they actually followed through with this name.
Having been through a corporate branding exercise run by a supposedly top agency from the inside, trust me, you don’t want to know.

Bonvoy doesn't mean anything, yet. Marriott will define it through customer experience.
Not as easy to trademark as a made up word.

I like @soy's nickname -- Bonfire. Reminds me of the dumpster fire that dealing with Marriott corporate (IT/website/customer disservice) has become. At least the properties have been consistently good for me (minus one -- RI North Portland).
Re: the meetmarriottbonvoy.marriott.com website -- who the hell designed this? The visual effects are terribly annoying and it gives no information! I'm at work, so I'm sure as hell not going to be playing a video at work. Obviously whoever designs this stuff has never been a business traveler or worked in a proper office.
