Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, earn and spend points from Marriott Bonvoy hotels

There is a new partnership between Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, the upcoming line of cruise ships, and Marriott Bonvoy, one of the best-known companies in the global hospitality industry.

In early November, the two companies announced an agreement that will allow Marriott Bonvoy customers to Accrue and spend U.S. hotel brand points on board cruises organized by the Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection.
