making it easier to get status. Status is going down slowly.

Has anyone actually had this verified?  Or find it in writing?  There is definitely some confusion amongst the reps.

Does the status last through the end of next year?

status earned usually is good for the rest of the year it was waned in and the following year. But you never know with Marriott. They are the absolute worst.

For status challenge with Marriott booking with points+cash works. Correct?

Under the new program, do stays with points+cash and or stays on points count towards status?
