You will not be able count any reward points or or stays on your Holiday Inn etc "Priority Club" rewards card. I lost the benefit of 11 day stay because I booked through Travelocity.

In november of 2008 I fineally got enough points for 1 night stay in an upgraded place. Well, I didn't realize that the bonus points are good for less than 2 years and regular points are good for less than 4. (They expire at the end of the year) So on December 31st my balance went from 12,XXX to 4XXX. With points set to expire in Dec 09 there is no way I will ever get enough points for a free room. Sorry Choice Hotels, You just lost a loyal customer who stayed with you for every family road trip for the last 3 years. I guess if you only stay with them 2-3 times a year they are not interested in rewarding you for being loyal. Watch out for Choice Hotels, their points expire!!!

You'll probably have to call their corporate customer line to talk with someone who can help you with special discounts if that's what your company is looking for. I suggest visiting the appropriate website listed above for more info. Kevin,

The traveller can get extra 6000 pts when I stayed two separate nites in between September to November 2007. It was so easy for us to get 8000 pts. The minimum requirement for a free nite for some hotels are only 5,000 or 6,000. We are so pleased to join the Choice Privileages. I joined a special promotion last Autumn 2007.

Our family exclusively utilizes the choice rewards program and stays at Choice hotel brands for our annual "big" summer trip and our occasional overnights. We always earn enough points to have at least 1 or 2 nights free hotel stays, especially if we hook up our online bookings with any special bonuses they happen to be offering at the time.

They offer the largest number of budget hotels and have locations everywhere. TripRewards and Choice Privileges are the two I use the most for spur of the moment lodging when you just need somewhere to stay the night. Well, TripRewards is certainly the one I use the most.
