Marriott is most well known as one of the biggest hotel companies on the planet, with a portfolio that boasts over 9,000 properties across 38 brands in nearly 150 different countries. The chain's loyalty program — Marriott Bonvoy — gives you plenty of ways to earn and redeem points for stays around the globe.
However, you may want to look beyond just free nights when burning your Bonvoy points. If you're in the market for a once-in-a-lifetime experience, that could be just one Marriott redemption away thanks to the Marriott Bonvoy Moments platform.
Last month, I had the chance to cheer on the U.S. men's national soccer team as part of Marriott's sponsorship of the World Cup — and even though the tournament is coming to and end soon, I saw firsthand just how valuable the Moments platform can be.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
