Beginning May 7, Marriott will start offering Gold and Platinum elite members free internet, but only in the US (excluding Hawaii and US territories) and Canada.

Following Hilton’s lead, Marriott is now making it possible to earn top tier elite status exclusively through credit card spend. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), it’s not nearly as lucrative as Hilton’s offer, whereby $40,000 of spend on their American Express Surpass card will get you Diamond status. Instead, Marriott [...]

Marriott is offering new members that stay twice by November 15 a free night certificate. As far as I can tell this can be earned from stays at any of Marriott’s brands, but unfortunately the free night can only be redeemed at a maximum of a category four property.

Every night you stay above the 50 nights needed to maintain your current [...]

As far as I know Marriott is the first program this year to roll out a double night credit promotion. I’m not sure whether it’s targeted or not, but it can be found here. This is cool, although I doubt I’ll be taking advantage of this promotion.
