SINGAPORE – Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is taking a moment to honour essential workers on the frontlines around the world through a new initiative that offers a free membership upgrade on its loyalty programme.

In the South East Asia and Pacific Rim region, we have seen and heard countless stories of the efforts of frontline workers, as well as unsung heroes, who have gone above and beyond the call of duty. This is a small gesture from us to say ‘thank you’ to these individuals for keeping us safe during these trying times,– Joon Aun Ooi, president and managing director, South East Asia and Pacific Rim, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts

Healthcare workers, delivery drivers, warehouse workers, grocery associates and hotel staff will be able to register for the #EverydayHeroes initiative, which offers eligible workers a Gold membership on Wyndham Rewards.

The membership tier includes members-only discounts, a dedicated member services line, preferred rooms, accelerated points earning and late checkout. The membership upgrade must be requested by 30 September 2020 and will be valid through 31 December 2021 across all of Wyndham’s 20 brands.

“As we continue to navigate through the uncertain and evolving situation, we are extremely grateful for the dedication and sacrifices of all frontline individuals providing essential services around the world,” said Joon Aun Ooi, president and managing director, South East Asia and Pacific Rim, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts.

“In the South East Asia and Pacific Rim region, we have seen and heard countless stories of the efforts of frontline workers, as well as unsung heroes, who have gone above and beyond the call of duty. This is a small gesture from us to say ‘thank you’ to these individuals for keeping us safe during these trying times,” he added.

Wyndham is also continuing to update its policies worldwide to offer relaxed cancellation policies, extending membership benefits and delaying points expiration.
