Free Night Awards with an original expiration date prior to 2020 will not be eligible for the additional extension. Members do not need to take any action.

Marriott had previously extended free night certificates until January 31, 2021. Points expiration will also be paused until August 1, 2021. It’s nice to see this extension from Marriott.
