Got a $59 rate at the Hyatt IAD (Dulles). So the second night will be only $9! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

And with just one more night I'll also get one night free! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum60/HTML/000590.html

That's $127. for four nights at Hyatt's or an average of only $32 per night! It's worth it, no? http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Thank you Hyatt! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Doc (or anyone else),

Do you know if it is possible to take advantage of the offer by booking on hyatt's website for an internet rate? I didn't see any place to enter that code.

I do not believe an internet rate will get you the bonus as you need the ``Hyatt's Hometown Getaways'' rate as I understand it - but, sadly, I've been wrong before! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

Hope this helps! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

How do you use the AMEX $50 gift cheque? Do they send you one in the mail a few weeks after your stay to apply towards your Amex bill or do you just deduct $50 off your hotel bill at check out?

You reportedly get it at checkIN! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Anyone have any luck with this promo? When did you receive the gift check? Were you able to get the gift check without using the AMEX card.

Yes, TWO, it was simply handed over to me at checkin with no prompting! I like it! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I'm doing it again and again too! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

FWIW, I'd reserved with Amex and paid with Amex as well. Why use the gift cert, although you surely can, since I could actually give that cert to someone else and still also get the additional points for the charged bill too! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Remember, only through January 31, 2002 http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif
