Conclusion

This additional component reminds me greatly of Marriott’s MegaBonus, although the merge is not expect to complete before sometime in the second quarter/summer.

Hospitality business is highly cyclical. When the economy is on the thin ice or unstable, the hotel occupancy and rates nose dive. This happened last time during the financial crises of 2008. That was great time for various hotel promotions.
