IHG Rewards is once again proposing this year its fast track offer to achieve Platinum Elite status in the loyalty program of the hotel chain that encompasses many brands such as Intercontinental, Kimpton and Holiday Inn.
Compared to the offerings we saw in 2020 and 2021, the possibility of earning the Gold level with 2 stays was removed, while the possibility of earning the Platinum Elite level remained.
To accomplish this, all you need to do is stay five nights in any of the IHG group hotels.
The benefits of Platinum Elite status are many: room upgrades, 50% bonus points per stay, and late check-out.
To obtain the status until December 31, 2023, one must register for the promotion on the official website By March 12 and stay 5 nights Within the first 90 days from the date of enrollment.
In conclusion
This fast track is very interesting because opens the door to an important status in the IHG loyalty program for almost 2 years. And especially because, once the status is obtained, it is possible to apply for the status match in Hilton and become a Diamond through the current offering.
