Earlier this week we wrote about Starwood and Uber’s new partnership, where SPG members can earn Starpoints with Uber. As a reminder, SPG members who take Uber rides today will have the opportunity to earn 15,000 Starpoints. 
Here’s How:
To kickoff the partnership, Uber and Starwood are teaming up to surprise and delight SPG members and Uber riders with an “SPG #SuiteRide†in five cities around the world. On Saturday, February 28 Uber riders who link their Starwood and Uber accounts can select the “SPG†vehicle option within the Uber app for a door-to-door branded hotel experience on wheels and 15,000 Starpoints – good for a free night at category 1-5 Starwood hotel.
#SuiteRide members will experience the unique features and amenities from Starwood’s nine distinct brands—St. Regis®, The Luxury Collection®, W®, Westin®, Le Méridien®, Sheraton®, Four Points® by Sheraton, Aloft®, and Element® in their SPG-branded Uber including:
- Westin Hotels – an invitation to indulge in its signature well-being amenities, including a 10-minute Headspace meditation session, a Westin Heavenly Robe, and a Westin White Tea Travel Set.
- W Hotels – a blend of iconic design and contemporary luxury will immerse riders in an extraordinary experience featuring LED mood lighting, music inspired by W, and a Bliss Spa travel pack.
- St. Regis – a luxurious ride combining classic sophistication with modern sensibility where riders will enjoy fresh flowers; jazz music; Beyond, The St. Regis Magazine; and the St Regis Bloody Mary book.
- Aloft – a modern, fresh and fun experience including a mini-refuel kit and free wifi for the tech savvy traveler.
These one-of-a-kind, limited SPG Ubers will hit the road in the following cities around the world: Dubai, London, Mexico City, New York, and San Francisco from 2 pm – 7 pm local time.
You win by requesting the SPG Uber car. If you get the SPG Uber car you win 15,000 Starpoints. It’s that easy!
Bottom Line:
Good luck trying to win 15,000 Starpoints and report back if you win!
If you are new to Uber, you can still sign up and get $20 off your first ride when you sign up though this link.

There’s a big difference between earning and winning. Nice click bait. I wish there was a way to exclude blogs from appearing on the BA homepage.
Uber and SPG screwed up this promotion. They should have made it where you can request an Uber and if an SPG car shows up you get 15,000 points. Instead, you have to request an SPG car in the app if it’s available so there’s no incentive to request an Uber unless it’s showing an SPG ride as available. BTW – I’ve left the app open for over an hour in midtown and no availability for SPG rides has shown up.
