Vacations by Marriott - Using Marriott Bonvoy Points

Your points can be used to obtain free hotel nights on other stays booked on the Marriott Bonvoy site. What’s more, when you book on this site, if you spend five consecutive nights in the same hotel using your points, you’ll only pay for four!

You can also transfer Marriott Bonvoy points into airline miles. Marriott Bonvoy partners with a variety of airline loyalty programs, including Aeroplan and Flying Blue.

Finally, what could be better than savouring great experiences with Marriott Bonvoy Moments. This program gives Marriott Bonvoy members exclusive access to concerts, festivals, culinary experiences, sporting events and much more.

Vacations by Marriott - Earn Marriott Bonvoy Points

Booking a package with Vacations by Marriott Bonvoy is a great opportunity to earn points. However, the easiest way to earn Marriott Bonvoy points in Canada is with a co-branded credit card.

American Express offers two credit cards linked to the Marriott Bonvoy program:

Each of these cards allows you to earn Marriott Bonvoy points directly through your daily spending and welcome bonuses. Additionally, once you reach your destination, you can earn 5 points per dollar on eligible hotel purchases, including meals and beverages. Be sure to provide your membership number when using these services.

It’s important to mention that payment for your package on Vacations by Marriott Bonvoy will be coded as a travel expense and not a Marriott hotel-specific expense: you’ll therefore earn 2 points/dollar when paying with one of Marriott Bonvoy’s cards.

Over the years, Marriott Bonvoy has developed a number of partnerships with airlines: now it’s Qatar Airways’ turn to offer its customers the possibility of transferring Avios from the Qatar Airways Executive Club to Marriott Bonvoy.

Vacations by Marriott - Bottom Line

Vacations by Marriott Bonvoy is the only platform on which you can book a complete vacation package, while earning Marriott Bonvoy points and elite nights.

From luxury hotels and wellness retreats to colourful Caribbean bungalows, you’re sure to find the place of your dreams for your next vacation.

Booking your hotel, plane tickets, car and favourite activities in a single transaction not only earns you points, but also saves you money with exclusive and last-minute offers.

However, it is recommended to compare the prices of an all-inclusive Vacations by Marriott Bonvoy package, paid in US dollars, with the costs of booking flights and hotels separately on the Marriott Bonvoy website and airline websites.

Finally, to avoid foreign currency conversion fees when booking on Vacations by Marriott Bonvoy, you could use the Scotiabank® Gold American Express® Card. With the Scene+ program, you can also reimburse all or part of your trip with Scene+ points.
