You're asking now after I had the mod change the thread title?

Well, to answer your question:

The link should be live, but this depends on tidal forces, the existence of Santa Claus and/or the presence of snow in Dubai.

Lemme know how that works out for you.

Captain Obvious here to report that today is only 2 January. Seven more days until you can officially sign up.

And, until January 9, we ask that you please avoid reposting the link to the registration page on any other communication channels (blogs, twitter, etc.). The page has been temporarily pulled down; thus, it will be a poor experience for those that you do send there that do try to register now but can’t because they are clicking on a re-posted, not live link.

I have a 10 night stay coming up in SING, and 2 3 week stays coming up in Japan, A coworker also has the same schedule. We are both SPG Platinum members and have averaged about 100 nights over the past 6 years. Since this promo excludes all Asia properties and is even less appealing than last quarters promo, we have decided to move on and stay at the Marriott.

Despite your/mine/other's disappointment with lack of Asia/Pac participation in this promo; *You're keepin' it positive Keyser!

*Hopefully a pacesetter for the new year for all FT Starwood posters

i'm definitely disappointed but at the end of the day i'll continue to stay at properties that treat me well & that are convenient to me in terms of location & price....promos are great but for me they have never been nor will ever be the deciding factor on where i stay....

I also enjoy staying at the same properties that treat me well, which is why I will come back to SPG if they have a better promo during the second quarter, in the mean time I hope to enjoy my upgrades at the Marriott, as well as the free nights I will be earning
