Marriott / SPG Platinum für 600 Euro (Österreich Strategie)

Für Österreicher hätte ich eine Strategie zum Marriott / SPG Platinum für 600 Euro …

Ein Status Match zu irgendeiner kleinen Kette ist zwar prinzipiell lustig, aber man sollte sich doch auf die leistungsfähigeren Statusprogramme konzentrieren. Hat Marriott / SPG derzeit aufgrund des Mergers gerade gröbere Probleme, so ist das Programm selbst sicher unter die besten Hotelprogramme zu zählen.

Wie schon bei SPG, hat nun auch Marriott / SPG eine Status Challenge laufen.

Von Marriott / SPG habe ich folgende Infos:

“Gold challenge: Stay 8 nights in 3 months to get Gold.
Platinum challenge: Stay 16 nights in 3 months to get Platinum
Members can only register for each of this challenges once between now and Dec. 31, 2021 by calling the CEC. Any member is eligible to register today, but they can only register once in the next three years.”

Die Bedingungen dazu:

Für die Promo muss man sich telefonisch anmelden. Dann absolviert man 16 Nächte.

Das Courtyard Brno hat nun fürs Wochenende in den nächsten Monaten Rates zu 37 Euro im Einzelzimmer (= Doppelzimmer) geladen. Man absolviert also die 16 Nächte im gut erreichbaren und neuen Courtyard Brno. Damit ist man dann um ca. 600 Euro Marriott / SPG Platinum.

Bei anderen Hotels in Osteuropa klappt das jetzt im Winter auch. Die sind aber ein wenig schwieriger zu erreichen.
