Since it seems that these status challenges come along every 6 months, am I correct in that there is no "cooldown" period? And that going from AA to Hyatt can be repeated when offered?

Thanks!
This isn't the correct thread, but IIRC:
  1. You must be Plat Pro or higher with AAdvantage to have a shot at Globalist
  2. You only receive instant Explorist, and need 20 nights to become a Globalist
So, you can't just expect to press some buttons and be a Globalist for a specific stay in January 2025.
