Thanks for the info on that.
One of the things I like about the Hyatt programme is the few points you need to redeem quality stays at hotels around the world. For instance, I'll be in Honolulu next year for a conference and see that the Hyatt Place is only 12,000 points per night whereas anything with SPMarriott or Hilton would cost me at least 40,000 points per night. In addition, there are numerous promotions on now to buy Hyatt points on the cheap such as the
US Travel Daily Getaway Promotion next month. Needless to say, I'll be at my computer the moment those promotions go live to snap up a stack of Hyatt points.
Safe Travels,
