Podcast 30. The Hyatt Hype: Our Favorite Hotel Chain to Earn Points
Pam
On this episode, we – Pam, Alex, and Jess – opened up about our journey to becoming Hyatt superfans, despite having previously dabbled with a variety of hotel rewards programs. We let you in on why Hyatt has us singing its praises, revealing the alluring benefits of the Hyatt program.
Interestingly, we didn’t always have this love for Hyatt. Our transition from hotel free-agents to Hyatt die-hards was gradual, evolving from a combination of disappointment with other hotel rewards programs and the enticing advantages offered by Hyatt.
The game-changer? The real value of Hyatt started to shine when other hotel rewards programs began to slowly devalue their points. Amidst the 2020 pandemic, Hyatt cleverly made it much simpler to achieve their coveted Globalist status, igniting a spark of interest among travelers. Pam summed it up perfectly: once you taste the perks of being a Globalist, you simply can’t go back.
In addition to the irresistible Globalist status, we talked about the ease of earning Hyatt points, particularly compared to other hotel brands. With Hyatt’s beneficial partnership with Chase, we can effortlessly accumulate points through Hyatt Personal and Business Cards, as well as Chase’s Ultimate Rewards cards like the Sapphire Preferred, Reserve, Freedom Flex, Freedom Unlimited, and Ink Cards.
We also reminisce about our favorite Hyatt stays to date, leaving you daydreaming about fantastic locations and luxurious hotel experiences. We won’t spoil the surprises, but let’s just say these stories might just inspire your next vacation destination.
Whether you’re already a fan or just Hyatt-curious, this episode offers insights that can turn your travel dreams into affordable realities. So tune in, take notes, and who knows, you might find yourself joining Team Hyatt by the end! Until the next episode, keep exploring and happy traveling!
