Go after Hyatt Globalist?

Getting all but one night is kind of my plan!

Hyatt just. does. not. work. for. me. Their footprint is just waaaaay too small for me. While I go to Hong Kong and China--both have great Hyatt properties, that's about the extent where I'd get value from the program. In normal circumstances, nearly 1/2 of my annual nights are spent in suburbs, like NW of Philly where the nearest Hyatt property is a 40-minute drive (with tolls and having to cross into NJ) from where I conduct my business. (Hilton has 3 properties within 10 mins, Marriott even more). Another 10-15 nights/year would normally be spent at the Las Vegas Convention Center, I love the Renaissance right there--the Hyatt Place is a hike.

Indeed, but I will say it's a quicker proposition than it used to be. I called to verify a few weeks ago and instead of them having to contact me later after they submit a request and someone runs a TPS report, it's now at their fingertips.
