Hey all, I left four shirts in the wardrobe of my room in a Sheraton. They’re saying they are not in lost and found but I am 100% sure they were in the room. One of the shirts has sentimental value...

Wife and I want to do a quick trip to Orlando with our 3 year old. Just want to do magic kingdom for a day as i think that’s all we can handle. Recommendation a on Disney hotel vs say a Marriott? The price difference is huge and I know I can get a suite for free with my status at the Marriott.

FYI If your name doesn’t match exactly you can’t combine.

And when I called SPG they said the account maintenance wasn’t ready so to call back

The new SPG app is not intuitive at all, very hard to navigate i find.

Anyone else obsessed with the Westin white tea line? 😅

Anyone else not getting points / nights for recent Marriott stays? Account activity isn’t working in the app

FYI - Just went on the Marriott website and selected the option to combine both spg and Marriott accounts. All stays and details updated. Past history to be updated in 48 hours. Get it done folks!!

Successfully made the jump.

Just graduated with Aerospace Engineering degree. I am interviewing for multiple positions at once with different companies. One gave me an offer and they want me to get back to them within 2 days. I still have other interviews scheduled and some for higher paying jobs (around 90k) What should I do?
I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.
