I would like to hit LT Globalist status, firstly how do I check how far I am from hitting this? Secondly I understand that credit card spending can count towards the 1m base points total, does that include any spend on the CC?
The easiest way to check is to call the Glob line and ask how many base points you have earned towards the 200k spending min
They can tell you exactly in base points and dollars how far off you are
CC spend does not earn base points towards earning LTG Status for that reason the WOH credit cards can’t help you earn lifetime Globalist status
Also as a fresh reminder never ask for miles at check in for a stay ever as you will earn miles and no base points towards your LT status
If you want miles let the stay post as points and later call to change over to miles.
It took me extra years to get my Glob lifetime status falling into this trap.Today on record and off I am close to over double lifetime Globalist status
I was staying with Hyatt for years before there was any loyalty program when you received no recognition other than liking your stay or not!
Perhaps Lifetime Globalist Plus status should be in the works
