Many of us that take the time to be an Insider achieve Platinum status annually, or are already Lifetime Platinum (LP). I have just reached LP with 2MM points and >1000 nights with Marriott. So, should there be a new category above Platinum? I am a Marriott guy for hotels and Delta for airlines. Delta served up Diamond Status which was a full 50k miles greater than Platinum several years ago. I think Marriott should follow suit. Perhaps 1250 night stayed and 2.5MM points required to get there. If this ever occurred, what should the perks be? Perhaps a 100% point multiplier? Free Marriott Credit Card that indicates the top status? Free upgrades at Vacation Clubs? Elimination of additional resort fees, parking, etc? Company Stock? :-) Wow... talk about Golden Handcuffs!! What say you?
Kind regards.
