I am 6 nights and $1500 spend away from hitting Ambassador. I don’t think Marriott will award Ambassador status as a courtesy but I am going to try. Otherwise as a fallback what do you suggest as reasonable alternatives to hit the threshold? Since I am that close I wanted to give it a shot. TIA

Unless there have been material changes to the program, I wouldn’t spend the extra cash out of my own pocket to hit Ambassador. That being said, I think you could hit the nights via one of the credit cards, but you may have to hit the spend requirement the hard way.

The only reason to get it is if you are traveling next year as well to increase your points multiplier

No points multiplier increase between Titanium and Ambassadors
