News, Tips & Tricks
It hasn’t been too long since InterContinental Hotel’s Group Priority Club
made some changes to their free night reward charts and as of January 18 of
this year further changes are coming. Gone will be the redemption rates based
on brand as the reward chart moves to a category format like most of Priority
Club’s competition. The actual min and max redemption amounts haven’t changed
as they range from 10,000 points for Category 1 to 50,000 points for Category
9. Priority Club is set to release the hotel list by category on January 9th
and according to the director of Priority Club rewards about 30% of hotels will
move down in points requirements while another 30% will move up. So when this
list comes out and you see that a hotel you want to redeem for is moving up
you can still redeem at the old rates until March 18 (only by calling in) and
if the hotel is moving down I would hold off until the 18th to redeem for it.
