Choice Hotels is giving its Choice Privileges members the chance to say "Aloha" this winter with a Hawaiian vacation giveaway! This promotion will allow Choice Privileges members to register to earn triple Choice Privileges rewards points or triple Airline Rewards, starting with their second qualifying stay.* Choice Hotels guests who register for the promotion will also be entered for a chance to win a seven-day, six-night dream vacation to Hawaii.**
"Not only will our guests receive three times the points or miles for their travel this winter," said Greg Brown, vice president of loyalty and relationship marketing, "but one lucky winner will be off to Hawaii for a great vacation. Our guests tell us they desire Hawaii as much as any destination in the world, so we're proud to offer 16 hotels for both earning and redeeming Choice Privileges points."
To take advantage of this special offer, travelers must register at choicehotels.com. The bonus will be awarded starting on the guest's second stay with arrival between December 10, 2009 to February 18, 2010, when booking at choicehotels.com or 800-4CHOICE at eligible rates. Registration for the promotion also makes the guest eligible for the Hawaiian vacation sweepstakes.
Participating Choice brand hotels include Comfort Inn®, Comfort Suites®, Quality®, Sleep Inn®, Clarion®, Cambria Suites®, MainStay Suites®, Suburban Extended Stay®, Econo Lodge®, Rodeway Inn® and Ascend Collection®.
"With this offer, we're again helping our customers get closer to a free night even faster," added Brown. "Our redemption levels are not jumping up with the arrival of 2010, so Choice Privileges members can plan to enjoy the same great value they have this year."
Membership in the Choice Privileges rewards program is free and offers guests the opportunity to earn points towards free nights, airline miles, retail gift cards and more while staying at any Choice Hotels brand property throughout the U.S. (including Hawaii), Canada, Europe, Mexico, Australasia and the Caribbean.+ For more information, visit www.choiceprivileges.com.
