• This is one of the biggest benefits of the Platinum Card. The combo of Gold Elite status plus the 100K welcome bonus points makes the card very rewarding.
• If you stay around 10 nights a year and get at least 5 successful upgrades, you can easily extract ₹20,000+ value from the Marriott Gold tier.
