Marriott is going to kill SPG

That is how they role. If you want confirmed suite upgrades try Hyatt or to a lesser extent SPG.

True with Marriott

SPG it only works ahead of time if you have suite night awards as your chosen perk after 50 nights in a year and even those can only be confirmed 5 days in advance I believe.

AT1, those never work.. gahhhh
