Hyatt Amazon Prime Partnership

Hyatt Amazon Prime Partnership

In what could be one of the more creative branding moves, there is a possible Hyatt Amazon Prime partnership in the works.  This is completely my own conjecture based on a survey I received today from Hyatt. Hyatt Gold Passport is one of the more lucrative loyalty programs out there; … Read more

Bonus Hyatt Gold Passport Points in Las Vegas

Hyatt Gold Passport points in Las Vegas

Hyatt Gold Passport points in Las Vegas

There has been a standing relationship between Hyatt and Mlife resorts in Las Vegas.  You can do an elite status match between the two loyalty programs and earn Hyatt Gold Passport points in Las Vegas when staying at an Mlife resort.

Today Hyatt announced a new bonus offer for earning Hyatt Gold Passport points in Las Vegas known as Third Night’s a Charm.  If you register at hyatt.com/vegassummer, you will earn bonus points after a three night stay through September 30.

Your room must be booked direct through Hyatt (I was told via a Hyatt rep on Twitter that bookings through Mlife don’t count).  Expedia or another OTA won’t work.  You also can’t book a room with points.  Cash + Point reservations are only at Hyatt properties so those are also not eligible.

Hyatt Blacking Out Award Nights?

UPDATE: I was able to resolve this though a number of emails and phone calls.  See update below.

I am running into an issue with Hyatt blacking out award nights at the Park Hyatt Buenos Aires.  It is unclear if they are actually holding back rooms or doing some wacky practices in what rooms are available for award reservations.

I will be in Buenos Aires December 24-27.  Granted this is over Christmas, so I expect there to be higher demand.  I was able to book the first night on Points + Cash.  However, the 25th and 26th are unavailable to book with Points, Points + Cash, or with my Chase Visa Award Nights that I earned through my sign up bonus.
