How it Works:
First, register for this promotion via your email link. Next, stay 10 nights to earn Explorist status (this would normally take 30 nights); or stay 20 nights to earn Globalist status (this would normally take 30 nights).
The Benefits of Hyatt status:
The Bottom Line:Â
Much has been made of this particular promotion. Some claim its an act of desperation from Hyatt – an about-face for scrapping their previous ‘easier to earn status’ loyalty program and thus losing many elite frequent travelers. Others view this promotion as somewhat of a ‘slap in the face’ to the most loyal Hyatt customers as they’ve been killing themselves to get the Globalist status by hitting the 60 night requirement, when you can now get Globalist status for just 20 nights. Still more view this is an offensive slight to International travelers who are excluded from participating in this promotion.
I actually think that there is truth to all the above. But, lets be honest here: Travel-hacking is really based on the whims of the corporations who constantly give valuable promotions, only to rip them away or devalue them weeks or months later. So my position is: This is a great deal if you stay at Hyatt hotels – “better get it while the gettin’ is good” (register by September 30th, and complete all stays from September 1, 2017 through December 20, 2017).
Cheers!
