I think the design, although not without some issues, is nice and scalable. I took a look at the versions for other countries, and they did a pretty good job ensuring that content would be drafted and localized to accommodate, instead of overflow, the space. And the solutions for countries like Brazil, where there's only one real piece of content bucket, scaled down well also.
Of course, I can't personally read the international content, so I wonder if any of that has been hard-truncated instead of drafted to fit. Being a Marriott member, I found the addition of the quick-access account controls in the upper right corner to be much easier to find and manage than the controls from the previous site. It's handy that the menu remains expanded over the cards instead of collapsing immediately on mouseout. Only gripe: The use of both a minus icon and a close icon to collapse the panel. Seem to do the same thing, and just confused me at first (was worried the "X" would sign me out or something, seeing that there was already a collapse icon). BTW Dimiter, #7: didn't even see that before, nice catch. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
