Can't hurt to try
Does anyone know if I use my MIL's account to book a reservation for a Sheraton, can I use my Suite Night Awards on that reservation?
Sheraton Edison or Sheraton Eatontown, which one is better?
when promoted to starwood gold, am i supposed to get a new card?
https://www.starwoodhotels.com/bestrate/index.htmlis this a new thing? 2,000 bonus SPG points if you find a better rate?
Not new
no, when you submit the BRG you can choose which you would prefer
Do Amex 5 night credits count towards the 18 night Platinum challenge?
You mean if you take the challenge right before you get your credits for the year?
Since they only count paid stays, not sure if that would work.
do they accept cash and points as credit toward the 18-night stay?
No
therefore it would be easier to combine 2 accounts' 5 stays each for 10 total stays and then completing the additional 15 stays with points and/or C&P for the total 25 stays per year to earn plat status
