Marriott Bonvoy just announced a new Status match with a challenge for members with elite status with some of the rival hotel brands. This latest status challenge is a great opportunity for those with elite status in a rival hotel loyalty program to stay with Marriott and earn an elite tier in the Bonvoy program much faster than usual.

Marriott Bonvoy has launched a new opportunity for members of Hilton Honors, World of Hyatt, Accor Live Limitless, and IHG Rewards Club programs. For a limited time only members will be able to enroll in a status challenge that offers instant Marriott Bonvoy Gold, or Platinum benefits.
