Any Hilton recs in Charleston?

Will hotels and airlines extend their status requirements? (I really only care about Marriott)

W south beach or Ritz Carlton Fort Lauderdale?

Heads up: Hilton is giving triple points during July if you use their credit card for booking. Good opportunity to make up to 54 points per $1. Time to stack up those points! Happy monday! :D

Planning a babymoon with my wife. Shooting for April-May and looking at Hawaii (Maui or Big Island). Hoping with the vaccine and travel precautions, it'll be okay, but we're also prepared to cancel.

Staying at the Ritz and STR in the Maldives so expecting good service and reading mixed things about tipping. I usually don’t tip much at hotels (never really thought about it) but what do people do? Is there an expectation and would the amount be based on like room rate or just a flat daily per day?

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!!

So my spg points and nights have still not merged with my Marriott account. Anyone else having this issue?

Situation: got an offer from firm X; highly likely to get a better offer from firm Y but official offer would take a couple of more weeks in best case scenario. However, firm X’s offer validity about to run out. Would you: (1) accept X’s offer now but rescind later if Y converts (2) ask X for additional time to decide (they’re “prestigious” and may not offer additional time...) (3) Play straight, decline X and hope Y converts (4) any other creative ideas ...???
