Andrea - everyone I know that has received a certificate has notified the resort of their upcoming trip and that they have been coming 10 years, 20, etc. I'm almost there - just completed my 8th trip in 2 1/2 yrs.

3 1/2 weeks in Aruba Dec. 16, '08 - Jan. 9, '09
Aruba since 1985

We received our 10-year award last year and the Marriott notified us through our travel agent. We didn't even realize we were eligible for it. Maybe it depends on the hotel.

Women and cats will do as they please and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

ya had my 3 cups so my brain became clearer.

thru our travels to aruba since 1979 we have stayed at numerous places...with most regularity lacabana brc since we have been owners there since 2000.........but prior to that and even now, we also stay at other places on island.

we have lost count on going to aruba.
i am uncomfortable with the idea of calling the ata and asking resort saying "please honor paul and me"

but to each their own~~ and now i know how those folks came by their certificates/awards.

now back to 3 more swim classes and then will call it a day!

Just think of it as job security.
