you can sell the FNA for more then the AF

Can you sell the FNA?  I spoke to a CS rep and she told me you have to be there in person at check-in.

Does the Bonvoy business card no longer give free night award? My card renewed in October and I didn’t get the free night. Amex claim i need to have spent 60k in 2019 to be eligible?

There seems to be a delay. My annual fee posted in November and still haven't received my free night. #Bonvoy!

I want to use my FNA for my son and daughter-in-law.  A Bonvoy rep told me the award is for the account holder and I would have to be there at least for check-in.  Is this true?  If so, is there a way around it?

Thanks.  So the hotel won't care? Or do we need to be sly about the fact that I am not there? It is USA.

never talk more than you have to! EVER!!! but just add one or both of them on to the reservation and don't tell them anything about you not being there and they will be fine!

If I use the Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express Card to pay a post office box fee at the post office, do I get 4X? The concern is that although the merchant sells shipping services, the particular charge is not for making a shipment. What about if I pay the fee at usps.com?
