At least it wasn't "Give Orlando a shot!"

We are incredibly apologetic for the timing of this message. Everyone within our company here in Orlando are beyond saddened by the tragic event at Disney last night, and we send our deepest condolences to the family. This promotional email’s headline, which was in reference to a new local roller coaster, was developed and scheduled for distribution far in advance. However, this is a critical opportunity for us to review all content that is pre-scheduled and carefully determine what and when to distribute based on what’s happening not only in Orlando but around the world. We are working to make sure all of our owners and guests know this is important to us.

Wow. I'm a member, too, but I probably deleted without reading it if I got the email. That's cringe worthy.

I have to go run and check my Marriott rewards account. They might need to step their advert game up!

The explanation of the intent is as bad as the ad. It's about shark bites and also in poor taste.

According to HGVC, "a bite" was in reference to the new Mako hypercoaster at the nearby SeaWorld whose mascot happens to be a shark.

It's a shot in the dark but they didn't mention having a bang-up time taking the Pulse of Orlando....
