Thoughts on Accor hotel loyalty program? Trying to decide whether to stay there and sign up for rewards. How are their perks for members and how is the redemption? (Cont’d)

Good for Europe I hear.

There’s a Sofitel that would be most convenient to work location for some extended upcoming travel but I literally know nothing about Accor’s loyalty program and whether it’s any good. Quick google search says they own fairmont and raffles but does the rewards cover those types of properties? I didn’t find a good quick overview of their program so any links on the topic would be appreciated too! 🙏

French chain...many properties in SE Asia

Sofitel is awesome - hotel of choice when in Europe!

It was my go-to when doing lots of travel in Europe. They are centrally located just about everywhere while Marriott and Hiltons were often inconveniently located Member perks were about the same as any major chain. Redemptions were widely available but points didn’t seem to go very far. One nice thing I liked is that they have everything from dirt cheap Ibis hotels to very nice 5-star properties available on points, depending what you want.

Doing pretty well at the current firm and might be headed to the next level in fy22 or 23 max but feel like I need to move out and do something else as well. I can complain about my Pay, wlb, travel, ability to branch but all the same, I know I have a supportive network and can wiggle my way a little bit to make it more easier. I’m in the need of some expert opinions so debating who I can talk to and be open about my misgivings and not let it negatively effect myself. Thoughts?Where can I start?

Help!! My bestfriend is doing two months abroad and was trying to fly into turkey when they told her she couldn't because her passport expired within three months.

She went to the US Embassay in Athens knowing she had a month left of traveling, and gave her an emergency passport and punched holes in her exsisting one. Now no country will let her in with her emergency passport.

Can her mom get her a passport in the US and ship it to her? Is there anyway around this?

Thank you!!
