How a Preferred Partner reservation is treated
Nothing accrues, because there is nothing to accrue into. Recognition at these houses rests on stay history and on what the advisor tells the hotel before you arrive.
This is the case where a Preferred Partner reservation matters most. With no points to weigh against it, the programme's benefits are the whole of the difference between booking routes.

Questions
- Do I still earn on a Preferred Partner booking?

- Is my status recognised?
- Yes. Your membership number is attached to the reservation before it reaches the house, so the hotel sees the same tier it would see on a booking made directly.
- Do the programme benefits stack on top of my elite benefits?
- This is the case where a Preferred Partner reservation matters most. With no points to weigh against it, the programme's benefits are the whole of the difference between booking routes.
