The Marriott Bonvoy programme offers ultra exclusive experiences for its members.
George Russell walks into the lobby lounge of The Ritz-Carlton, Melbourne. The Mercedes F1 driver is all smiles ahead of the Australian Grand Prix that coming April weekend. He makes his way through the crowd, taking the time to shake hands, pose for pictures and pause to chat briefly with each of us. All the while, exuding a ’90s boyband aura about him.
This bit of pre-dinner entertainment was part of a very exclusive experience organised by Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott International’s travel programme, and members can bid for such ‘Marriott Bonvoy Moments’ with points accumulated through stays at hotels and resorts in the Marriott portfolio around the world, as well as through purchases with co-branded credit cards.
It’s a special relationship, this. Between Marriott and the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One team – one with roots tracing back to 2012, when the Mercedes team first partnered up with the Starwood Preferred Guest programme, long before Marriott International’s acquisition of Starwood Hotels & Resorts in 2016. The programme then morphed into Marriott Bonvoy in 2019, following the subsequent merger of the Marriott Rewards, The Ritz-Carlton Rewards and SPG programmes.
