Damn, the Americans get another 20% off for holding the ihg card.

A lot of people have been offered $800 for 120K plus additional 20% off, so only cost $640 for 1 year diamond member + 120k points.

If that’s the case I’m now more than a little annoyed and will be focusing my stays on Hilton (where I’m also Diamond). I also agree with earlier comment that that might lead to a cheap status challenge anyway…
