love that....don't i wish i could fly down every thursday for 5 weeks and do hhn.........i would if i couldSo, from what I understand, if you do your 5 stays during HHN 2008 and then go a week earlier in 2009 so you are within your 1 year and do 5 more stays , then you have your 10 stays within any 12 month period. You now have Platinum for the next 12 months or until October 2010. You would have to do the same thing and stay 10 more times in the next 12 months to keep your Platinum for 2011.
Hope that makes sense.
that will be my wish the next time i get to do the wish on the wish bone on a turkey/chicken!!
ok, this puts me at a better running then.
i'll be staying in october this year and will do a short trip in spring 09 and then my regular in oct 09 on the platinum status.
then january 1 2010 hits and i will be knocked down to gold for the spring and oct stay.
i can live with that.
there is no way i will be making all those stays in a one year time period.
i could get it by number of nights, but not at individual stays.
all i have to say about that is, it was great while it lasted!! woo hoo...
