The Fine Print

Our Verdict
Obviously you’ll want to try and wait until you know you can meet the nights requirement to keep the status. I don’t think it’s going to be particularly difficult to get status in the next 12 months given COVID-19, but for those that highly value status and don’t have it this could be useful. Don’t forget about Marriott’s exclusively for you promotion and the 2,500 bonus points per stay.
