View Your IHG Set Your Sights Promo Offer Now

As I wrote about earlier, IHG Rewards Club is the first major hotel loyalty program to announce their 2015 promotion.

IHG Rewards Club has now unveiled the full details of their first quarter 2015 promotion, entitled Set Your Sights. The promotion is valid for stays between January 1 and April 30, 2015.

You'll have to log into your account to register and see what your offer is.

Much like IHG Rewards Club's recent Into The Nights promotion, this one consists of several "tasks" you have to complete to earn the maximum bonus. Beyond that, the offer is customized for each member, so we all have different offers.
