Business travelers are famously loyal to their routines and their rewards. Marriott’s Bonvoy program, now boasting over 219 million members worldwide, is one of the largest hotel loyalty schemes on the planet.
But does bigger mean better for the road warrior? We evaluate Marriott Bonvoy through a business travel lens, blending on-the-ground experiences with expert insight.
From elite upgrades in executive lounges to the hard math of point values, here’s how Bonvoy measures up for the global corporate traveler.
Status Tiers and Benefits
Marriott Bonvoy offers five elite tiers beyond the basic Member level. For frequent business travelers who practically live in hotels, reaching higher status can significantly enhance comfort and convenience on the road. Here’s a quick look at what each elite tier means for your travels:
- Silver Elite (10 nights/year): Entry-level perks like 10% bonus points on stays and priority late checkout (up to 2pm when available). Nice to have, but minimal impact on a busy traveler’s stay.
- Gold Elite (25 nights): 25% bonus points and modest upgrades (better rooms, but usually not suites), plus 2pm late checkout when possible. Still no free breakfast or club lounge access – Gold is relatively weak in Bonvoy, often earned as a side benefit of certain credit cards or status matches.
- Platinum Elite (50 nights): The sweet spot where valuable perks kick in. Platinum members enjoy 50% bonus points, guaranteed 4pm late checkout, space-available room upgrades including suites, and access to executive lounges (or complimentary breakfast at many brands when lounges are closed). Upon check-in Platinums also get a welcome gift (points, breakfast, or amenities). This is the level where the business traveler truly feels VIP treatment – free breakfast and lounge snacks can translate to real savings on the road.
- Titanium Elite (75 nights): All Platinum benefits plus a 75% point bonus and higher priority for upgrades. Titaniums receive an annual Choice Benefit (like 5 Suite Night Awards to confirm upgrades) and even United Airlines Premier Silver status via the Marriott-United RewardsPlus partnership – a nod to how hotel loyalty can extend to airline perks. Essentially, Titanium is for the über-road warriors; think of it as Platinum on steroids, with a side of airline perks.
- Ambassador Elite (100 nights + ~$23k spend): Marriott’s loftiest tier requires not just nights but heavy spending. Ambassadors get all Titanium perks plus a dedicated personal ambassador (concierge) to assist with travel needs, and the Your24 benefit (flexible 24-hour check-in/out – you can arrive, say, 9pm and check out 9pm next day, if approved). These members are Marriott’s most valued (often corporate execs or consultants camped in hotels year-round). The personalized service can be a lifesaver for complex travel schedules, but many business travelers find the spend requirement daunting.
One candid Marriott executive admitted that Bonvoy isn’t as generous as the old Starwood Preferred Guest program it replaced, acknowledging that what some SPG loyalists lost in rich perks has been offset by Marriott’s far larger hotel network.
In practice, that means elite benefits are a bit more conservative now – but you can use them in a lot more places. A traveler might lament a diluted upgrade policy, yet still appreciate that in “even in Bumfuck Alabama or Mississippi, their hotels are pretty nice”, as one frequent flyer quipped, underlining Marriott’s unrivaled footprint.
The reliability of Marriott’s 30 brands – from Courtyards and Residence Inns up to St. Regis and Ritz-Carlton – is indeed a core strength for business travelers. As another Bonvoy veteran put it: inside the US, the program’s biggest selling point is simply “the largest footprint,” while “outside the US, I am very happy with the loyalty program, with the service, with the benefits”.
In Asia-Pacific and Europe, Marriott elites often report more consistent recognition (upgrades and welcomes), whereas stateside the experience can vary by property.
What’s a Bonvoy Point Worth?
Loyalty points are the currency of bleisure dreams – earned on dull work trips, then cashed in for that hard-earned vacation.
But not all points are created equal. Marriott Bonvoy points have a reputation for middling value, especially after the program’s 2022 shift to dynamic award pricing (which eliminated fixed award charts). How do Bonvoy points stack up now?
Financial analysts and travel experts value Bonvoy points at around 0.7 to 0.9 US cents per point in mid-2025. For perspective, 100,000 points might cover a $700 hotel bill. The Points Guy’s latest valuation pegs Marriott at the lower end (0.7¢), a drop from prior years as high-end award nights have become pricier.
Competitors fare differently: NerdWallet estimates Marriott at 0.9¢, Hilton Honors around 0.5¢ (even lower value per point), and World of Hyatt a hefty 2.2¢ per point. In practice this means it generally takes a lot more Marriott points to get a free night than it would in Hyatt’s program – though Marriott tries to compensate with sheer availability. “
At many U.S. properties, you’re better off paying cash and earning Bonvoy points to redeem elsewhere,” one analysis noted after finding Marriott redemptions averaging only ~0.7¢ value at those hotels.
Why the relatively low value? One culprit is dynamic award pricing. Marriott removed its published award charts in March 2022 and now prices free nights based on supply and demand (similar to airline tickets). In peak times, a room that used to cost 35,000 points might soar to 50,000+ points, diluting your per-point value.
On the flip side, off-peak nights can sometimes cost fewer points than before. For a business traveler with a stash of points, this means you’ll want to comparison-shop: sometimes paying cash and saving points yields more value if the “points price” is disproportionately high.
Another factor is point earning rates. Marriott generally awards 10 base points per dollar on most stays (plus your elite bonus), so a Platinum guest earns 15 points/$ (50% bonus).
That sounds generous, but given the ~0.7–0.9¢ value per point, it’s an effective return of about 10–13.5% – not bad, but not industry-leading. Other programs like Hilton offer similar earn rates with lower point value, and credit card programs (Chase, Amex) can often beat that return on spend.
The upshot: Bonvoy points are absolutely worth collecting, but don’t expect them to fund a week in the Maldives without some serious accumulation. Speaking of which…
For the globetrotting executive, one silver lining of Marriott’s giant portfolio is the range of redemption options. That next client meeting in London or Singapore could earn you points that are just as valid at a beach resort in Bali as at an airport Fairfield Inn.
Marriott’s luxury brands (Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, Edition, etc.) can be terrific redemptions if you have the points – albeit nightly rates often exceed 80,000 points at top properties.
Marriott does still offer a “fifth night free” on award stays (book five nights on points for the cost of four), which smart travelers use to stretch value on longer trips.
And unlike some competitors, Bonvoy lets you top off a free night certificate with points (up to 15,000 points extra) if the hotel’s rate exceeds your certificate’s value – a useful tweak that increases flexibility.
Redeeming for Flights, Experiences and More
Hotel nights are just one way to use Bonvoy points. Marriott has built a broader ecosystem of redemptions that can particularly appeal to business travelers looking for value beyond the hotel invoice:
Airline Transfers
Bonvoy points can be converted into miles with 40+ airline programs. The typical rate is 3 Bonvoy points = 1 airline mile, and if you transfer 60,000 points, Marriott throws in a 5,000 mile bonus (so 60k Bonvoy = 25k miles in many programs).
This isn’t the most lucrative conversion (it effectively yields 0.7¢*3 = 2.1¢ per 3 points, or 0.84¢ per point if an airline mile is worth 1.2–1.5¢). However, for the busy consultant who is points-rich but miles-poor, it’s a handy option to top off an airline account for a needed award ticket.
Some travelers leverage Marriott points this way for otherwise hard-to-get flights – for example, converting Bonvoy points to Japan Airlines miles for a business class seat. It’s a niche strategy, but the flexibility is there.
Marriott Bonvoy Moments
In an effort to make loyalty more “experiential,” Marriott offers a Moments platform where you can redeem points for special events – think concert tickets, VIP packages, sporting events, or culinary experiences. “People travel for experiences and their passions, not just to stay in a hotel,” notes Peggy Roe, Marriott’s Chief Customer Officer, explaining how Bonvoy has evolved “from a simple hotel points program to one that gives access to 30,000+ experiences” worldwide.
Bonvoy has partnered with the NFL for Super Bowl packages, Formula One races, and even exclusive Taylor Swift concert experiences. For a business traveler, this means your slog of work trips could yield a bucket-list outing (maybe tickets to the next World Cup or a meet-and-greet with a celebrity chef) when you cash in those points.
It’s an engaging twist that goes beyond the standard “free night” and can be a memorable way to use rewards.
Car Rentals, Cruises, & Merchandise
These exist, but frankly tend to offer poor value. You could redeem Bonvoy points for a rental car or a new iPad, but you’ll often get well under 0.5¢ per point in such redemptions.
Most savvy travelers steer clear of these options unless they have a small orphan points balance to burn. Marriott also operates “Vacations by Marriott” packages, allowing you to book hotel+flight bundles (earning points, not a redemption) which small businesses might use for convenience – but those aren’t point redemptions, just another earning avenue.
One area Marriott has pushed recently is making Bonvoy more engaging during times you’re not traveling. They’ve added partnerships like Uber – you can earn Bonvoy points on Uber rides and UberEats orders when linked – and occasional promos (during the pandemic they even gave bonus points for grocery purchases on co-branded credit cards).
The idea is to keep members interacting with Bonvoy in daily life. Marriott’s CEO Anthony Capuano has said he wants guests to have “a much more emotional relationship with Bonvoy,” not just a transactional one. Part of that strategy is to offer more ways to earn and burn points beyond the hotel stay – hence the experiences platform and partnerships.
It’s an ambitious play to capture “as close to 100% of your travel wallet as possible,” as Capuano put it recently. For business travelers, this could mean your rides to the airport and your team dinner takeout can inch you toward your next free vacation. Every little bit counts when the aim is total loyalty.
Credit Card Perks and Shortcuts
No evaluation of Marriott Bonvoy for frequent travelers is complete without discussing credit cards. Co-branded credit cards can be a fast-track to both points and status – an area especially relevant to U.S.-based road warriors (though Marriott is expanding card offerings internationally, including new cards in markets like South Korea and Mexico).
Here are some key ways the plastic can boost your Bonvoy experience:
Elite Night Credits
Marriott credit cards grant automatic elite night credits each year – generally 15 nights credit with personal cards like the Marriott Bonvoy Boundless (Chase) and Bonvoy Business Amex, and 25 nights with the premium Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express.
Critically, you can stack one personal and one business card to receive up to 40 nights credited every year. This is huge for a busy professional. For example, hold the Bonvoy Business card (15 nights) and the Brilliant (25 nights) – you wake up on January 1 with 40 nights already in your Bonvoy account.
That’s 80% of the way to Platinum Elite status before you’ve booked a single work trip in the new year. Many business travelers leverage this: stay just 10 more nights and you’ve secured Platinum.
Note: The Brilliant Amex card actually grants Platinum status outright as a benefit – more on that in a moment – but these credit-card nights still matter for achieving the 50 and 75-night thresholds where you earn choice benefits like Suite Night Awards.
Automatic Elite Status
Several Marriott cards offer instant elite status. The Bonvoy Boundless (annual fee $95) comes with automatic Silver Elite, which frankly is not too exciting. The mid-tier Bonvoy Bevy (Amex, $250 fee) and Bonvoy Business Amex ($125 fee) give Gold Elite – a nice bump if you’re a casual traveler, but Gold’s lack of lounge/breakfast benefits limits its impact.
The headliner is the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant Amex (recently relaunched with a hefty $650 annual fee): it now confers Platinum Elite status just by holding the card.
That means a cardholder is entitled to the perks of 50-night status – upgrades, 4pm late checkouts, free breakfast at most brands – even if they don’t actually travel enough to earn it.
As TPG’s Summer Hull puts it, “This card is an absolute no-brainer for those who stay at full-service Marriott brands multiple times a year, but not quite enough to naturally earn Platinum… With it I can enjoy hundreds of dollars in annual status perks plus the 85,000-point free night certificate that saves me hundreds on a night at higher-end Marriott hotels”.
In other words, a moderately frequent business traveler can buy their way into elite comfort. The only catch: if you care about milestones like Titanium or Ambassador, you still need the actual nights.
Holding Platinum via credit card won’t, for example, automatically give you the 50-night “Choice Benefit” (you’d have to either stay 50 nights or spend $60k on the card in a year to earn that).
But for many, just having Platinum perks on each stay is worth the card fee – your breakfast in the hotel club lounge and occasional suite upgrades easily offset a chunk of that cost.
Point Earning and Bonuses
Marriott cards also accelerate your point accumulation. The Brilliant Amex earns 6x points on Marriott stays, 3x on dining and airfare, and 2x on other purchases. Given TPG’s valuation of 0.7¢/point, that’s roughly a 4.2% return on Marriott spend and 2.1% on dining/airfare – not earth-shattering, but decent for a cobranded card.
The Boundless and Business cards have similar category bonuses (e.g. 6x at Marriott, 3-4x on common business categories like gas, dining, airlines, shipping, etc. on the business card).
Importantly, all these cards typically come with a sizeable welcome bonus (often 75,000 to 150,000 points for meeting a spend requirement) which can jump-start your rewards balance for that next big redemption.
Annual Free Night Certificates
A popular perk – most Marriott cards give a free night award each year upon renewal (valid for up to a certain point value). The Boundless and Business cards include a 35,000-point free night certificate every year, and the Brilliant provides an 85,000-point certificate.
These certificates can be extremely valuable if used strategically. For instance, a 35k certificate can cover a night at a mid-range Marriott (think Courtyard in a big city or even a Westin resort off-peak).
The 85k cert could get you a night at a St. Regis or Ritz-Carlton that might cost $600+. Many travelers justify a card’s annual fee for this benefit alone. That said, Marriott’s dynamic pricing means you have to find a night under the cap – a 35k cert won’t work if your date is pricing at 40k points.
As one analysis showed, if a hotel like the Domes Miramare in Greece has most summer dates at 40,000 points, your 35k cert frustratingly won’t be accepted for those peak dates. Marriott did introduce the ability to add up to 15,000 points to a cert, which helps in some cases.
Also note, free night certs expire after 12 months if not used, adding a bit of pressure to redeem them. A common gripe among Bonvoy members is that these certs are “hard to use” due to the combo of expiration and capacity controls – you might find award space blocked on the weekends you actually want to travel.
The key is planning ahead and being flexible. Often a one-night weekend getaway or a stopover on a business trip is a perfect opportunity to burn a cert.
Travel Protections and Credits
The Marriott cards also carry various travel insurance benefits (trip delay coverage, lost luggage reimbursement, rental car collision damage waiver, etc.) which are great for peace of mind.
The high-end Brilliant card further comes with up to $300 in dining credits (doled out as $25 per month) – effectively a rebate if you remember to use it each month – and a Priority Pass Select membership for airport lounge access (handy if your airline status or Amex Platinum doesn’t already cover that).
It even refunds your Global Entry/TSA PreCheck application fee. These perks can appeal to a business traveler who wants to elevate the entire journey, not just the hotel stay.
For many, the strategy is clear: get a Marriott card (or two) to augment what your travel doesn’t naturally earn. If your job has you on the road 40 nights a year, a personal + business card combo can push you to Platinum status territory with ease. Meanwhile, all your work trip spending goes on a card earning bonus points, which then fund your personal vacations.
It’s a classic win-win. Just be mindful of annual fees and ensure you maximize the benefits (it’s worth doing the math on credits, free nights, and your realistic usage to decide if a $650 premium card is “worth it” for you).
As one independent review concluded, “there’s plenty of value in the Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant if you frequently stay at Marriott properties and place value in the elite perks... it may be a no-brainer for [Bonvoy’s] most loyal guests”.
The Bonvoy Balance Sheet
Is Marriott Bonvoy truly rewarding for global business travelers? The answer, like many in travel, is it depends. Here’s a candid look at where Bonvoy shines and where it struggles, especially compared to other hotel loyalty programs:
Global Reach and Consistency – This is Marriott’s trump card. With about 8,500 properties (and growing) across 139+ countries, Bonvoy makes it easy to earn and burn points almost anywhere you go.
For a consultant bouncing between Tier 2 cities or a salesperson visiting clients in remote areas, the odds of finding a Marriott-affiliated hotel are excellent – be it a Fairfield Suites off an interstate or a JW Marriott downtown.
That ubiquity is something smaller programs (like Hyatt, with 1,300 hotels) simply can’t match. Moreover, Marriott’s sheer variety of brands means you can choose a style and price-point that fits each trip (no need to overspend on a luxury hotel if a Courtyard will do, or vice versa).
Business travelers also value brand consistency: Courtyard or Sheraton may not be flashy, but you generally know what you’re going to get in terms of room, Wi-Fi, desk space, and so on. This reliability across the portfolio is a big plus for those living out of a suitcase.
As one Reddit user noted, “a big benefit I’ll give them is consistency… they don’t hesitate to pull the flag if a place gets bad”, implying Marriott maintains quality standards for even its cheaper brands.
High-End Hotel Options – On the flip side of consistency, Marriott also offers aspirational stays when you want them. A week at the St. Regis Bali or a conference at the Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong becomes more attainable when you’re funneling all your stays into one loyalty pot.
And those Platinum or Titanium benefits tend to feel extra valuable at high-end hotels – a suite upgrade at a Ritz-Carlton is a far cry from an upgrade at a roadside Fairfield. Bonvoy’s elite perks are honored at nearly all its brands (with a few exceptions like Ritz-Carlton properties not offering free breakfast to Platinums – they give points instead, and some Design Hotels or Vacation Club resorts with limited perks).
Still, having access to Marriott’s luxury portfolio through one program is a selling point for frequent travelers who might do business travel Monday–Thursday and then enjoy five-star leisure on weekends using points.
Elite Benefits – We’ve covered these in depth. In summary, Bonvoy’s elite program is solid at the Platinum+ level (free breakfast, lounges, upgrades can significantly improve travel comfort). Marriott’s late checkout (4pm guaranteed for Platinum and above) often outclasses competitors – for example, Hilton’s late checkout is not guaranteed and generally earlier.
That can be critical for a business traveler squeezing in a few more hours of work before an evening flight. The Suite Night Awards (earned at 50 and 75 nights) are another nice perk: you can apply these to try to confirm suite upgrades in advance for important trips.
They’re not always successful (depends on hotel availability), but when they clear, it’s a big win (who doesn’t like extra space, especially if you need to spread out work documents or host a brief meeting in your room?).
Marriott also uniquely offers some cross-industry perks, like the United Silver status for Titanium members – not a game-changer, but free checked bags and a shot at extra legroom seats on United can certainly smooth frequent travels.
Now, the shortcomings:
Point Value & Redemption Glitches – As discussed, Marriott’s move to dynamic pricing has devalued many redemptions and made award costs less predictable.
It’s not as egregious as some airline devaluations, but it requires vigilance to ensure you get good value. Another pain point: resort fees. Marriott continues to charge resort fees on award stays – meaning even if you use points for a free night, you might be hit with a $30 daily “destination fee” at checkout. This applies regardless of elite status (yes, even top-tier Ambassadors pay resort fees, unless they fight them case-by-case).
This policy is not on par with rivals – Hyatt waives resort fees on all award nights, and Hilton waives them for elite members on points stays. It’s a sore spot for Bonvoy members, essentially a cash co-pay on your “free” stay.
Marriott also doesn’t provide free breakfast at resorts for elites in some regions (they may offer points instead), which can diminish the value of a leisure redemption. All told, extracting maximum value from Bonvoy points can be a bit of an art, and sometimes a frustration.
Mid-Tier Weakness & Earning Challenge – If your business travel is intermittent, you might find yourself in Bonvoy’s vast “middle class” of Gold Elites – a tier that sounds shiny but delivers little.
Unlike Hilton Gold (which gives free breakfast), Marriott Gold has no such benefits, leaving infrequent travelers with a status that doesn’t materially improve hotel stays. Marriott’s decision to reserve the most meaningful perks for Platinum and above means the program really pays off mostly for heavy travelers or those leveraging credit cards.
For someone who has, say, 20 work nights a year, Bonvoy Gold (which they’d earn) might not feel very rewarding. Another issue for some: ambitious qualification hurdles. The leap from Platinum (50 nights) to Titanium (75 nights) and Ambassador (100 nights + $23k) is steep.
Many business travelers who easily surpass 50 might still fall short of 75 or 100, making those upper tiers a stretch. And Marriott ended the soft-landing policy, so each year you have to re-qualify; statuses like Ambassador can be unforgiving if your travel volume dips.
The spend requirement for Ambassador (recently hiked to $23,000/year) also means it’s not enough to stay 100 nights at cheap rates – Marriott wants you to be a high-revenue guest. In contrast, some competitor programs focus solely on nights or points, which might be easier to attain via mattress runs or company travel in cheaper markets.
Customer Service and Program Complexity – “Bonvoyed” became a running joke on travel forums after Marriott’s 2019 integration glitches and customer service issues. While the IT meltdowns have largely been resolved, Marriott’s customer service still gets mixed reviews from frequent guests.
Elite phone lines exist but can have long wait times, and not all representatives are equally knowledgeable. During the pandemic, many elites felt Marriott was slow to enforce brand standards – e.g. some hotels kept lounges closed or cut housekeeping, citing COVID, long after travel rebounded, thus denying elites promised benefits. Marriott executives have acknowledged this “friction” between guest expectations and owners trying to recover losses.
In 2021, CEO Capuano even said daily housekeeping might not return automatically, except at luxury brands. For business travelers who value a clean room and available facilities, these inconsistencies can be a letdown.
The program’s rules are also on the complex side: different breakfast offerings by brand, quirks like which brands allow lounge access or not (e.g. Edition hotels don’t have lounges or breakfast for elites), the fact that Ritz-Carltons don’t give free breakfast to Platinums, etc.
It’s a lot for a traveler to remember. Marriott has 30 brands, and navigating the benefits at each can feel like fine print study – arguably more complicated than Hilton or Hyatt.
Comparison to Other Programs – If we stack Marriott Bonvoy against its peers for a business traveler perspective: Hilton Honors offers easier status (Gold/Diamond via credit cards or matches) and universal free breakfast for Gold+, but Hilton points are weaker value and Hilton lacks the ultra-luxury footprint of Marriott’s top end.
Hyatt offers the richest top-tier perks (confirmed suite upgrades, no resort fees on awards, guaranteed 4pm checkout, etc.) and very valuable points, but its network is small – a deal-breaker for those traveling to places where Hyatt just isn’t present.
IHG One Rewards recently improved (bringing free breakfast for top elites and suite upgrade certificates), yet IHG’s footprint and luxury segment (aside from InterContinental and Six Senses) might not excite a luxury-leaning traveler, and their points are worth only about 0.5¢.
Marriott sits somewhere in the middle: huge presence and solid (if not industry-best) benefits. It aims to be a one-stop shop for all travel needs, from a Fairfield in rural Alabama (with reliable Wi-Fi and a free hot breakfast, if not via status then via brand amenity) to a W Hotel in Doha to an AC Hotel in Madrid. This breadth is Bonvoy’s biggest competitive edge, especially for global corporate travelers.
As Capuano said, “what some SPG loyalists lost in richness, we hope breadth of choice – whether it be brands or geography – is a mitigating factor.” Time will tell if that holds true, but empirically many business travelers do stick with Marriott because they know wherever work (or leisure) sends them, there’s a Bonvoy option.
Is Bonvoy Right for You?
In my personal experience, Marriott Bonvoy comes across as a powerful yet imperfect tool for business travelers. The program’s strengths – unmatched global reach, a wide spectrum of hotel experiences, and worthwhile elite perks at higher tiers – make it very attractive for those on the road frequently.
It effectively converts business travel expenses into personal travel rewards, which is the core promise of any loyalty program. As one loyalty expert mused, “The Marriott Bonvoy program isn’t a bad one for a frequent traveler. It’s easy to throw a rock and find a Marriott hotel in most corners of the world.”
The value is there, but (as that expert added) “some improvements to the program, such as higher limits on points pooling or waived resort fees for elite members, wouldn’t hurt.” In plain terms: Marriott could further sweeten the deal for its best customers.
For the global business traveler, Bonvoy is often a logical choice – your company’s travel spend can earn you serious personal perks, and the sheer ubiquity of Marriott properties makes travel planning simpler.
Just be aware of the program’s quirks: you may need to invest in a credit card to truly unlock the elite levels where the magic happens, and you’ll want to savvy yourself on redemption values to use points wisely (not all “free” nights are equal).
If you crave pampering and certainty of service, you might occasionally eye competitors like Hyatt for top-tier treatment or Hilton for no-fuss mid-tier perks. But few can rival Marriott when it comes to the comprehensive package.
In the end, loyalty is a two-way street. Marriott Bonvoy asks for your sustained patronage – “We want 100% of your travel wallet,” the CEO says – and in return it offers a world of hotels and experiences at your fingertips.
The business travelers who benefit most are those who go all-in and leverage the program’s nuances: hitting that 50+ night sweet spot (or simulating it with credit cards), choosing Marriott whenever possible, and redeeming points strategically for maximum enjoyment (be it a five-star getaway or a once-in-a-lifetime event).
Bonvoy may not be perfect, but for many road warriors, it has proven to be a reliable travel companion. It’s like that familiar hotel bar you find in every city – not always exceptional, but dependable, rewarding, and occasionally surprising. And when you’re far from home, that counts for a lot.
