The details are out for the first Megabonus 2011. While it isn't as lucrative as past Megabonuses, it gives members the ability to earn a free night for every 2 stays, similar to Hyatt's Faster Free nights. The key difference is that the free nights can only be redeemed at low-mid level properties and you can only earn up to two free nights vs unlimited with Hyatt.

Hyatt hasn't announced anything yet, but I feel like it will be coming soon. Starwood announced their Q1 promo last week, which was met with lukewarm response from the frequent flyer community. It's a decent promo for road warriors, but its nothing earth shattering. Hilton has yet to announce theirs, but it I wrote about what it is rumored to be here.
