My 70 night choice with Hyatt - if I ever got there, which is highly unlikely - would probably 10k Hyatt points.
Right now, almost never. But I head down to SAN often, and I would happily use AS rather than WN.

Look, I’m not trying to argue this is a good change. I get it’s not great for many. Just trying to speculate reasons for the move. I’m neither here nor there about it, but I’m awash in points and SUAs and genuinely wouldn’t mind the AA Gold. That’s all.
