With the next phase of growth, the ASR programme will progressively be elevated with value-add experiences for all members, starting with a complimentary one-year Wall Street Journal (WSJ)
subscription for eligible Platinum members who have booked and completed a stay during the campaign period. The subscription will include unlimited access to WSJ.com, podcasts and its newsletter, The Daily Shot.
