Has anyone reserved a Bonvoy hotel room through Points Advance reservation? I’m looking to do this (I’m a few weeks away from having enough points from work travel) but am worried about the number of points required going up. Does anyone know if they do this?

You can book in advance of having enough points to lock rate

Yep! That’s what I’m hoping to do - but they explicitly say they don’t lock the rate, so I’m wondering if people have had experiences of the # points required going up

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)
