Hi! Your pic shows two Marriott business cards equaling 40 nights. Wouldn't it be one business card such as the Amex Marriott Brilliant Card and one Marriott Chase card like the Marriott Boundless card that would equal 40 nights? Thinking it was just a mistake, but checking. One thing that you probably already know is if you get to 75 nights one also gets an extra free night, but I am sure that is for another video as I think you already mentioned. Thank you.
Hi - thanks for your comment! You're right - it's one business and one personal card. The AMEX Brilliant card is a personal card, which gives 25 nights, and the other is the AMEX business card which gives 15 nights. Thanks also for mentioning the Annual Choice award at 75 nights, which I believe is a 40,000 point night? We've never gotten it, but we will have a video soon talking about Titanium status with Marriott which will include that. Thanks again!
@@40-and-flying HI! Thank you. Yes, the Annual Choice award night is a 40,000 point night that also allows you to add another 15,000 point of our own if you wish to. I am blessed to be a Lifetime Titanium, so it is something I was focusing on. I did use my 50 night bonus award to add 5 elite nights in addition to get to 79 night this year. I am new to the CC game and by chance was just a loyal Marriott person over the years because of convenience and my love of the Marriott hotels abroad that I love. I agree with you that Marriott stays in the US are a hit and miss with even Titanium Lifetime meaning very little on most occasion especially if it is franchise location where can be great one place and almost non existent in another. There are several very good folks giving info on Marriott and I did enjoy yours in addtion. In 2025 I plan to acquire the Amex Brilliant card giving me 2 85,000 night awards (Chase Ritz-Amex Brilliant, 2 35,000-40,000 night awards (Chase Boundless+75 Night Choice Award. All the awards allow me to add 15,000 of my own points for a better property if I wish. I will pay a good sum for this privilege, but the free nights along with other credits easily make this worthwhile for me. As shared I have only stayed in a few Marriott in the US which I loved, but my nights in Bali, London, Scotland, Paris, Moscow, St Petersburg, Rome, Madrid, China and several others were well worth my dedication to Marriott. I am looking at IHG and Hyatt this year additionally, but just doing this to broaden my horizons. Thank you again! I am 64 in two weeks and all together I have stayed at Marriott well over a thousand nights.
Good review!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
