Wyndham Worldwide Corporation, which is the world s biggest hotel operator with 7,500 sites, florida gulf beach vacation rentals made a preliminary offer to acquire IHG in a deal that would have united leading industry brands florida gulf beach vacation rentals such as Holiday Inn, Travelodge, Knights Inn and Crowne Plaza.
Sources said this weekend that Wyndham s initial approach to combine with IHG, which was made earlier this year, had been rebuffed and was no longer live, but suggested that it could subsequently be revived.
Wyndham florida gulf beach vacation rentals is understood to have been examining a merger with IHG as a means of pursuing a so-called inversion, under which its tax domicile florida gulf beach vacation rentals would have switched florida gulf beach vacation rentals to the UK to take advantage of favourable florida gulf beach vacation rentals corporate tax rates.
It is difficult for me to see how this merger could have benefited IHG Rewards Club loyalty program members. Wyndham Rewards is very unexciting program that has zero elite benefits beyond florida gulf beach vacation rentals additional points for staying 20 nights year (max 3 times).
florida gulf beach vacation rentals If the merger goes through at some point, florida gulf beach vacation rentals however unlikely it is at this point, the combined hotel would be too heavy on the middle/lower end of hotel brands and very thin at the high end (InterContinental brand only really).

Then thank god it didn t happen. Although hypothetically I can imagine the strategy to have higher end hotels under Wyndham s umbrella it still sounds like Southwest Airlines was taking over US Airways. florida gulf beach vacation rentals Yes, hypothetically;)
Good that it didn t work. IHG should consider their clients. Money is one thing, important of course, but I think IHG has a great offer both for members and amount of hotels. I had only TWICE that there was no IHG hotel. one was easter island (impossible for brand to do something there); and siem reap (hyatt just had one).
I also say thank God it didn t happen and hope it won t. The way Wyndham treats its customers in the timeshare arm of their company is absolutely horrible and I don t see any good coming out of a merger between them and IHG for IHG customers.
It is now thanks to Kmart .. it s oft forgotten that Kmart owns Sears for the past decade even as they kept the name as Sears holdings to legitimize their idiocy) Among the worst run dept. retailers in America . (staples class) May IHG be spared such corporate merger mayhem.
