I just got one for a total 7,500 after four stays, with lower amounts for 2 or 3 stays. I think this is only my second targeted promotion ever!

I probably would have preferred the double nights credit in case 75 or 100 nights gets a bump under the new program, but I'll take a free 7,500 points any day.

I just about fell off my chair. Got an email tonight with an "Exclusive Offer". I rarely qualify for these but actually got one! (I did a happy dance -- yes, I'm pathetic).

Second stay = 2,000 points
Third stay = 2,500 points
Fourth stay = 3,000 points
Max: 7,500 points for stays from March 1 to May 31, 2018

Major thanks to Starwood for trying to include more members in these "exclusive" promos!

Those of you who were not eligible might want to check again. I wasn't eligible, but was bored and checked the offer today and have been offered 7,500 bonus points cumulatively from my 2nd, 3rd and 4th stay. I have those stays already booked, so it's an easy 7,500 points for me thanks to Flyertalk and the generosity of SPG

I'm so happy that I've got this offer (March 1 - April 30)

I have a little doubt on the regulations though:

Quote:

The bonus elite-qualifying nights that post to the member's account as result of the Promotion will not count toward SPG Lifetime™ status nights requirements or toward achieving any milestones required to obtain any other SPG Promotion Rewards including, but not limited to, for example, Status Challenges, Bonus Starpoints and Free Night Awards. Members upgraded to elite status solely as a result of the bonus elite-qualifying stays or nights posted will not have a year of elite status count toward SPG Lifetime qualification, unless the member achieves the typical required stays and nights needed for elite status.

I understand the bonus nights will not count for SPG Lifetime. What does it mean w.r.t. the second part? I'm already Platinum 50 - I have for this year 8 nights, I already had 12 nights in the next three months (but maybe they'll be more), which by doubling them up, they will become 24 for a total of 32 nights before June 1. To get the year of elite status counted should I ignore the additional 12 nights I will get? Thus, I should reach either 25 'normal stays' or 50 'non doubled up' nights, right?

I guess I'll push for exactly such a situation and maybe reach Platinum 75 this year.

March 1 Promotion

Everyone needs to revisit the March 1 promo. It worked for me, and I never received notice.
