this is being discussed on the AA board as well

with the recent devaluation it may make sense for me to jump on this deal just as I go into my Hyatt run next week ^ so good timing on my part

30K AA is definitely worth more to me in five one night stays than anything i can earn in GP points especially when you consider the GP inflation that hit us this week

EDIT: AA Forum Thread - http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...y-2-stays.html - I'm also leaving this year since its directly Hyatt related.

5 stays = 27.5K AA points + 2.5 free nights

I love it.

I just called because I got excited and thought this promotion was live already. The agent said it's not yet available in the system, but should be by Monday (5/3) when the promotion starts. ^

25K miles, right? 5 stays at 3000 miles = 15000 + 10000 mile bonus

This is a great promo. Especially since I have a few stays at a property with no Gx bonuses. My only question is about choosing miles instead of points. The FAQ says this

"You need to request airline bonus miles at the front desk for any stay where you prefer miles. You will need to provide your airline number at that time. Hyatt offers no way to permanently chose airline miles. Further, Hyatt Place employees seem to have no way to request airline miles. Some have reported being able to chose miles at Hyatt Place by using the check in kiosk. If not, request the airline miles after your HP/SS stay has posted."

But is there a code or something they need to put in or that we need to put in when booking, or is it simply register for the promo and say upon checkin "I want my airline bonus miles, my AA# is XXXXXX." And if you do online checkin, do you just note that in the comments field?

I think you get 500 miles per stay, as well, hence the extra 500x5=2.5k.

It's not loaded into their system yet, will be on Monday (according to the Diamond line....)

SanDiego1K

That was my take on it. The AA promo page speaks of earning up to 25K bonus points - so that should be in addition to the base points.

NJTraveler

I wonder is this promo could be related to an announcement that I received today that AA and Marriott Rewards are parting ways?

TrojanHorse

I'm looking at the promo now and it states that

3000 miles on each of your first five (5) stays. and and another 10K after stay #5 which is what someone posted above.

Is SD1K saying that in addition to the above, Hyatt gives 500 miles per stay normally and that the 3000 per stay is really 3500 miles per stay with the bonus plus normal base miles?

aba030

The promo actually states "Earn 3,000 bonus miles...", so these should be in addition to the 500 miles per stay.

npei

Yes. 500 miles per stay normally if you request miles instead of points, and that the 3000 per stay bonus is total 3500 miles per stay.

You won't get Gx bonuses since you'd have to choose miles instead of points

You'll likely have to call customer service to do this - don't even bother asking at the hotel as most of them don't seem to know how to credit the stay to miles. As long as you are registered in the promo, you'll be fine

Thanks OP for posting!

TripleABC

Will we still be able to get the Gx bonus in addition to th 3000 AA miles?
