Choice Privileges
The Choice Privileges loyalty program is a great way to earn points, which can be redeemed for free night stays at hotels, airline miles and many more benefits.
The Choice Privileges program began as a way to reward travelers for choosing to stay at one of the hotels that make up Choice Hotels. Whether a person stays at Comfort Inn, Comfort Suites, Quality Inn, Sleep Inn, Clarion Inn, Cambria Suites, MainStay Suites, Suburban, EconoLodge or Rodeway Inn they will start earning points.
There is no fee to join the program and there are four different levels of membership. To move up in the levels, just stay more nights in a hotel. A person achieves Gold status after staying 10 nights or more in a calendar year and will move to Platinum after 20 nights and to Diamond status after 40 nights. Each of the elite levels, have perks that range from member offers, to luggage tags, to complimentary room upgrades.
Points can also be earned by using a Choice Privileges Visa card, by shopping with partners of the Choice Privileges program or through the Airline or Amtrak Rewards Programs. It takes just a few minutes to join the program and a member number will be issued immediately, so new members can start enjoying the benefits of the loyalty program immediately. |
