Guess I'll join the wound licker's club

With the cost of acquiring UR and difficulty getting >2cpp now, I am definitely reevaluating where my future spend will go as 100% of my UR went to Hyatt.

Our points stays have really diminished the past two years or so as I don't churn CCs enough. Even prior to this upcoming change all the aspirational properties have continued to move out of reach ( Andaz Papagayo, Il Tornabuoni, Tribune, Cape, etc.).
Our stays focus on local favorites with excellent glob treatment and fair cash rates where we generally would get <2cpp anyway.

Looking at upcoming points stays they include peak summer holiday nights and PH AKL, both of which are set to become unattainable with these changes at the rate we generate points.

I find generating airline miles for international to be more rewarding lately as we have to buy 4 RT tickets for our family. Makes it easy to pay cash for our hotel stays when we've saved a ton on airfare upfront and we don't fly enough to justify airline loyalty.
