Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is almost done! The last two weeks Greg, Nick, and Stephen competed to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines. But who completed the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
IHG is in the midst of a promotion that it calls its “Biggest Member Event.” For Cyber Monday, IHG is offering 10,000 bonus points for every two nights stayed through the end of the year for bookings made today or tomorrow.
The Deal
- IHG is offering a 10,000 points bonus for every two nights stayed by 12/31/22
- Valid only for bookings made on 11/28/22 and 11/29/22.
- Previous bookings don’t qualify and so should be rebooked.
- Only valid for cash stays booked directly with IHG
- Registration is required prior to booking
Terms and Conditions
- To participate in this Promotion, a member must both register for the Promotion and book their qualifying room night stays during the “Activation Period.” The “Activation Period” is November 28, 2022 (12:00AM Local Standard Time) through November 29, 2022 (11:59PM Local Standard Time) only.
- To qualify for an award of 10,000 bonus points for two (2) qualifying room nights under this Promotion, each of the two (2) qualifying room nights must be part of one or more “Promotion Eligible Qualifying Stays” and must fall within the Promotion Period. The “Promotion Period” is from November 28,2022, through December 31,2022.
- Room nights prior to registration or outside of the Promotion Period are not included, and room nights that are part of a stay that was booked or completed prior to registration for the Promotion also are not included.
- For purposes of the Promotion, an “Promotion Eligible Qualifying Stay” is defined as a minimum 1-night stay booked under a Qualifying Rate, with a room rate exceeding $30 USD (or local equivalent) for each night.
- Stays booked using Rewards Nights or Points & Cash are not Promotion Eligible Qualifying Stays for purposes of this Promotion. Bookings made through on-line travel agencies or other reservation sites such as booking.com or expedia.com also do not qualify under this Promotion.
Quick Thoughts
Provided you have IHG cash stays before the end of the year, this is a pretty good promotion, as it effectively gets you 5,000 points per night. Our Reasonable Redemption Value for IHG points is 0.6 cents, so that’s a per night return of ~$30…on top of the normal rewards that you would earn.
In addition, this will stack with IHG’s current fall/winter promotion, which offers 10,000 bonus IHG points after every four nights or 2,000 for every two. Combine them, and a four night stay would net you 30,000 points, definitely worth making the effort to book today or tomorrow.
Thanks for the writeup Tim,
The T&Cs for this particular promotion don’t appear to exclude the Venetian / Palazzo Vegas properties. Anyone seen confirmation one way or another?
I haven’t. My assumption would be that they would if they’re not specifically excluded. I’ll reach out to IHG.
Thanks Tim, I appreciate the recon!
