Amex Platinum Marriot Loyalty

[hb13]

Hi All,

I was hoping to get some clarity on this. When you get an American Express Platinum, you get Gold Elite status automatically with Marriott Bonvoy. The next level up is Platinum Elite.

Normally, you need 50 nights to qualify for Platinum elite - however with the Amex Platinum, does this change? Does having the Amex Platinum mean you only need to stay 25 nights to get Platinum Elite? And if you stay 50 nights, you get to Titanium Elite and so on?

Thanks

I'm not as familiar with Marriott but would be surprised if it's different. With Hilton Honors it doesn't change the requirements to reach diamond from the gold status given with this card.

It doesn't change the requirements. For Platinum, you will still ned 50 nights.

Ahh fair enough - thought that may be the case

That's pretty useful for Amex Plat charge card holders. They'll have Bonvoy Gold Elite already, but they'll also have HH Gold. So a nice little upgrade there if you've got an upcoming staff.
