Omni Hotels & Resorts Launches New Planner Loyalty Program
Omni Select Planner™ offers meeting planners immediate benefits when booking at any property in the brand’s rich portfolio of hotels and resorts across North America
DALLAS (August 20, 2018) – Today, Omni Hotels & Resorts launches its new Omni Select Planner program for meeting planners, offering immediately redeemable rewards and benefits unlike any other group loyalty program. Meeting and event planners can now earn free nights, tier status and unique, local experiences with every booking
“We looked at our existing loyalty program, and industry programs overall, and found we had a real opportunity to recognize and thank our clients in a different way,” said Dan Surette, senior vice president of sales and marketing for Omni Hotels & Resorts. “Beyond a strong loyalty program that gives back to our valued planners, we know that genuine hospitality and service matters. Across the brand, we see ourselves as gracious hosts, and because of our unique ownership structure, our teams are flexible, empowered and creative. Our planners can truly book with confidence as we are in it together.”
Select Planner is the newest way to earn in Omni’s Select Guest® loyalty program. Members can earn award and tier credits immediately upon signing a group or catering booking, allowing the planner to earn free nights faster and offering an accelerated path to elite-level status. In addition to free room nights redeemable at any Omni hotel or resort, benefits include locally inspired welcome amenities and experiences, flexible check-in and check-outs, shoe shines and pressings, complimentary water, Wi-Fi and more. Additionally, members can easily track their rewards and manage their preferences in one user-friendly Select Guest account.
Planners earn one award credit per $1,000 and one tier credit per $10,000 booked. Twenty award credits can be redeemed for a free night at any of Omni’s luxury resorts and hotels across North America.
