Marriott Rewards has awarded select members elite night credit on their birthday month for years and seems that this tradition continues in 2019.
A LoyaltyLobby member forwarded us the email above that he just received from Marriott for the first time (hadn’t received previously).
You can access Marriott’s page for Birthday bonus here.
Note that Marriott Rewards needs to have your real or fictions birthday on file to send one of these out.
Conclusion
One elite night can come handy for those that are very close to qualifying for one of the many elite statuses with the program or perhaps reaching 50/75 nights in order to choose one of the Choice Benefits.
