No notice here either but when i last checked my youfirst account saw I didn’t have email notifications checked either, probably why lol. I do get plenty of emails from Universal though.
Looking forward to my last platinum stay on 12/6 at Portofino but will really miss the perks.
JMHO, but don’t expect any sort of replacement program to follow. Would like to be surprised.
The Loews Corp is a large conglomerate. Hotels are a small portion of holdings, just under 25 properties. It’s more expensive for them to run a reward program that the larger chains. Well, unless they’d decide to sell outright or elect to opt into a coalition reward program.
OT - There is no credible confirmation of the following, but it’s always fun to
There have been unsubstantiated rumors buzzing around for some time that Loews, instead of selling their holdings, may be ending the loyalty program in order to “reflag’ their existing properties as a larger brand (Hyatt or Marriott. I’d rather see Hilton if that’s the case).
They have stated repeatedly they aren’t interested in selling, but never say never. Time will tell.
