Are we going to abandon Hyatt over this? Probably not. But would this massive devaluation cause us to respond accordingly in how we choose hotels and how we spend on Hyatt and other Chase credit cards? I'd think so.
If the premise is that most posters are only interested in higher end properties, and “we” are not going to abandon Hyatt over this, then how would reduced spending help to accomplish this?
Seem like people will need to spend and earn more points, which is Hyatt’s goal here.
