So I ended up calling Hyatt, who put me on hold, etc. etc. Then, once it's booked, there is no confirmation and your reservation does not reflect the new room (though presumably it's taken out of inventory?)
Just a rambling comment to complain about the inefficiency year after year.
Sounds like you're upgrading a points stay. I'm pretty grateful Hyatt allows us to do that. What other program allows you to confirm a suite upgrade for up to seven nights at booking?
MHC confirmed one of these in 6 minutes yesterday via email.
Hyatt chat has become utterly worthless, don't even bother trying.
