    I currently have GHA Platinum, does anyone have any tips to obtain Titanium without having to stay at 3 different brands? Thanks 🙂

    In theory this ended on 16th but there was an option in the T&C for it to be extended, so keep an eye on it.

    Alternatively an existing Titanium could gift it to you on 1st January – not sure if you get it for the full year that way.

    Business Traveller has been running a promotion again (including in the UK) offering a three year renewal at £75 which offers Titanium until 31 Dec 2025. I have found GHA remarkably good at extending Titanium originally acquired via that route without completing anything like the number of required stays – in year six now. I thought I had better get a legit extension via BT.

    Business Traveller subscription only gets Platinum, not Platinum.

    – I wrote advisedly. I paid £75 for a three year renewal in November and was upgraded from Platinum to Titanium in response to a generic email. As the benefits can stack with directly negotiated rates, it works well.

    Re-start your Business Traveller magazine subscription and gain free Titanium status until the end of 2025, the elite membership level of GHA DISCOVERY!

    Thanks all . I contacted Business Traveller to see if I could renew my subscription for 3 years to get the upgrade however the promotion has now finished.

    I have emailed GHA to see if they will status match Preferred Hotels Titanium however not holding my breath as it seems to be harder now to get them to matc, but will wait and see.

    As suspected GHA replied advising they are not currently facilitating status matches.

    Any other pathways anyone can advise to obtain Titanium by end of Feb without having to stay 3 nights?

    Thanks!

    I’d be glad to know too as I’m looking at moving a substantial number of marriott nights across on my upcoming trip even though I just made plat on marriott. The price differential between Marriott and NH properties is as much as 50% cheaper in a lot of cases, inc breakfast rates.

    The NH properties generally get better reviews than the tired Sheratons, and in Buenos Airies I can get a suite with a balcony at half the price of a standard room at the Marriott.

    The difference in rates pays for a great deal of more expensive wine!

    I think I can make the three brands during the first 12 days of my trip but it’s touch and go.
