Marriott Bonvoy Tests Airline-Style Upgrade Waitlist (theaviationhub.co.uk)
Marriott Bonvoy is testing a beta feature in its app that shows elite members their real-time position on an upgrade waitlist and an estimate of complimentary upgrades available. The list is dynamic, as one Titanium member saw their position slip from second to third. It does not distinguish between room types, and Nightly Upgrade Awards are prioritized before complimentary upgrades.

The app indicates members will be notified one day before arrival if their upgrade is confirmed. The feature was first spotted by a member in a Facebook group and reported by One Mile at a Time, and Marriott has used ranked upgrade lists behind the scenes before, as View from the Wing covered in May 2025, when hotels received internal scores for arriving guests.
