Marriott has something called Annual Choice Benefit, which offers members a gift when they reach the 50- and 75-night milestones in a calendar year. When you reach 75 nights, one of the gifts you can choose is a free night award worth up to 40,000 points.
There’s something interesting about the FNA though, as its expiry date used to be one year from date when you select it. As you have until January 7th to make your choice, it means that FNAs selected in January were one year longer in expiry.
However, the terms and conditions have changed in 2022:
The Free Night Award (with a redemption value of up to 40,000 Points) must be redeemed for a stay that occurs no later than December 31, 2023.
Which made me think that they’ve fixed the bug. Well obviously it’s not the case, as a friend’s friend has just picked the FNA and the expiry is still showing as the end of 2024:
It’s not a super useful quirkiness. However, one more year’s validity gives you more flexibility at least.
