Choice Privilege Relaunch

[oz_mark]

Way back in the mists of time, I went through a phase of staying at Quality Hotels, I joined the Choice Privilege program. This as remained a tad dormant in the last few years, but today I received

On 1st April 2009, the Choice Privileges Rewards Program will be relaunched as an exciting new, global program featuring all new member benefits and rewards, allowing you to earn and redeem points at over 5,000 hotels worldwide!

I guess this means the Australian Program will be joining up with the exisiting, more global, North American/European program.

I'll see what the new program entails, but if it is the North American program then I well might! Easier to find Choice Hotels in some towns than a Hilton, Sheraton or Holiday Inn!

Well i hope it is all folded into one program.The australian program i felt a waste of time particularly as many of the places i stayed i could get QFF miles as an alternative.
I then joined up the USA program.Although not staying enough to get free nights at least a couple of upgrades,drinks etc.But if I can earn points here and there it may be worthwhile.
