    that allows you to earn loyalty points when you stayat any one o over 2,000 Sotel, Pullman, M Gallery,Grand Mercure, Novotel, Mercure, All Seasons orIbis hotels and resorts worldwide.

    Unlike other loyalty programs, its easy to earn andredeem your points. Quite simply, or every Euroequivalent you spend on Accor accommodationvia the Accor website, the A|Club website,through Accors phone reservations, or in-personat the property, you will earn either 1 or 2 points

    depending on the brand.

    Then once you have accumulated 2,000 points youcan redeem these points or hotel vouchers to usetowards your next hotel bill. Vouchers are valid 365days a year there are no black-out dates!

    Even better, Accor Vacation Club Members whohave registered an e-mail address with MemberServices have been automatically enrolled at Silvermembership level. One o the benets o Silvermembership is that you receive an extra 50% wortho points - eg: instead o earning 1 point, you earn1.5 points, so your earn them even aster!

    Normally you need to stay 10 nights per year atparticipating hotels to achieve Silver membership inthis program, but as an additional benet o HomeClub Membership, Accor is providing Members withautomatic Silver status that will be renewed annuallyor the lie o their Accor Vacation Club Membership.

    And as long as you stay one night a year in aparticipating hotel as an A|Club member you willnever lose your points. So its easy to see theadvantages provided to you by A|Club.

    To make this new beneft even better, the discounton Accor Asia Pacifc accommodation orMembers remains (note with the launch o A|Clubthis discount is now 10% o the best available

    unrestricted rate o the day see the article in theClub Clips section). This means you will continueto save on cash bookings, while also earningpoints to redeem on uture holidays!

    You can even convert your A|Club points orAirline Frequent Flyer programs, including thosewith Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways,Luthansa, US Airways, Delta Airlines and AirFrance KLM, with more airlines set to join beore

    the end o the year.A|Club is ully web-based, which means you canmanage your entire account, set preerences andorder A|Club vouchers online.

    Members who have provided Member Serviceswith their e-mail address will be registeredautomatically and will be receiving their welcomepacks in the coming weeks. This will have all thedetails o this amazing program, but i you cant

    wait to fnd out more please visit www.a-club.com.

    Anyone can join the program on the A|Clubwebsite, however Members wanting to gain theautomatic upgrade to Silver membership shouldprovide Member Services with their e-mail addressto ensure that Accor sets up your account. (Ane-mail account is required as A|Club is web based,and online communications are required to accessthe program.)

    As an Accor Vacation Club Member, you can now:

    use letover points towards another holiday - i your

    whole deposit isnt used on one exchange.

    In addition, the cleaning ee is now payable at the timeyour exchange is confrmed, and not when you deposityour points.

    These initiatives came into eect on 1 August 2008,and applies to all points deposited ater this time.Points deposited beore 1 August 2008 cannot becombined in this system.

    150 points deposited 1/05/2008 expiry date 1/05/2010

    1,200 points deposited 6/10/2008 expiry date 6/10/2010

    Exchange confrmed or 20/01/2009 or 1,700 points(to holiday beore 30/04/2009) uses a combination othe above points, with a balance o 50 points remainingthat expire 6/10/2010

    accor Vacation cLUB HoLiDay

    My wie and I always talked about our dream holiday and sincejoining Accor Vacation Club we have not only saved moneyevery year, but have now ticked o the rst o our dreams.

    Weve just had an amazing ortnight on New ZealandsSouth Island using our points to stay at Home Club propertyin Queenstown and Wanaka. As Platinum Members we

    had enough points to share our holiday with amily: myparents, sister, brother in law and niece all came along,and the money we saved on accommodation enabled usto experience all that Queenstown and Wanaka oered!

    Our frst stop was the wonderul and very white Wanaka.As this was the frst time that some o the amily had everexperienced snow, they were delighted to see it literally onour doorstep at Grand Mercure Oakridge Resort.

    We couldnt get enough o it. I especially loved watchingthe snow all while relaxing in the resorts hot pools... it wasreezing outside but super cosy in the water!

    While staying in Wanaka we ventured to Puzzling World, hadsnowball ghts in Cardrona and tubed the Remarkables.

    Ater the frst incredible week, we headed to Hotel StMoritz Queenstown or another 7 days o action. Boredomis not a term you would ever use in Queenstown, withendless adventures available. Its impossible to choose a

    avourite but our photo album is ull o highlights...Hot air ballooning over Queenstown, scenic fight and cruisetrip to Milord Sound, three dierent jet boat rides (we highlyrecommend Shotover Jet), dinner at Skyline Restaurant,relaxing in the Onseen Hot Pools, evening cruise on the historicTSS Earnslaw with dinner at the Homestead, parasailing onLake Wakatipu (thats my wie in the photo), catching a chinooksalmon with Queenstown shing charters, enjoying the worldamous Ferg Burger - the list doesnt stop.

    The best thing our dream holiday proved was how to make themost o our budget. Aside rom using points or accommodation,

    we received a discount on car hire with Europcar and using ourAdvantage Plus Card we were able to enjoy delicious mealsat the Club Propertys award winning restaurants withoutoverindulging on the credit card.
