Our current trip is 15 nights (may make more than 25 nights this year but not to 50) but will be around $6000, but only 4 stays. We live in uk and only travel for leisure but feel we offer Hyatt enough business by spend to 'deserve' diamond. At present spend in not legitimate, but I get fed up with people acting as if people who don't stay at least 50 nights are not loyal to Hyatt, although in some places 50 nights costs $5000 or less.
And yes we have thought of going somewhere cheap for a month or 6 weeks, but can't do so with 20 days holiday/year (I do appreciate this is more than many may get).
Couldn't agree with you more!
Luckily, we do manage to stay 50 nights/year (or almost) so maintain diamond level.
It will be a sad day when our travelling days are less and we slide down that slippery pole and become Platinum members or (shudder) GOLD!!!
