I would really like to find a way to keep Globalist though, but it would be very difficult to do some MR’s living in SoCal where there’s no cheap properties. It’s really crazy even the HP in Tijuana is now a Category 2…
The further some of us get from the US, the narrower the difference between Marriott Platinum and Hyatt Globalist. At some point it even ends up being taken by some that Marriott’s local footprint+Platinum benefits = better value for the money (in terms of elite status benefits at property) than Hyatt’s footprint+Globalist benefits.
