[QUOTE="albyd, post: 2337225, member: 30153"] If you have a personal and "business" Marriott card assuming one of the card's features is 15 night credit then get 30 night head start to Platinum so only need to stay 20 more nights to hit Platinum. Within Amex can get: [B]Bonvoy card $US95 AF[/B] Includes 15 nights credit towards status and 1 "free" night up to 35,000 points [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/card/marriott-bonvoy/?eep=25330&linknav=US-Acq-Shop-Consumer-VAC-CardMember-ViewCardDetail-BarriottBonvoy-carousel[/URL] [B]Bonvoy Business card $US125 AF[/B] Includes 15 nights credit towards status and 1 "free" night up to 35,000 points [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/business/business-credit-cards/amex-marriott-bonvoy-business-credit-card/?linknav=US-Acq-GCP-Open-CompareCards-TravelRewardsCards-CardArt-Marriott[/URL] I think you can only have 1 personal and 1 business (if you qualify and it makes sense for you) for this hack. Might be worth it if you stay at least 20 nights per annum and the AF's make sense to you. Can also do this with the Chase issued cards - though I think there's a 2 card limit. Thought Amex had stopped issuing the base Bonvoy card but can see it on the website (my old SPG card become this card). Alot cheaper than paying for the Brilliant if you don't need it. YMMV [/QUOTE]
