Yeah - but my last e-mail that I have is for October 31st and I've had a few stays since then. Nothing found in my Inbox for November. And I wasn't willing to wait for something that may or may not happen for December 2025.

You're a better Gold Passport/WoH member than I. In the intervening time between when I joined Hyatt's program and now, I've made 1MM on UA, Lifetime Titanium in Marriott and Lifetime Diamond with Hilton - all of them joined well after Hyatt.

Hyatt's footprint and my cheapskateness has led me astray.
