I followed your advice but was met with "We need the account summary of HHonors by mail. Please send it to: [email protected]." I inquired whether I could do it through the social media team due to the standard address resulting in a bit of a delay and they asked me to e-mail [email protected] address for a quicker response. Sent it off to them immediately.

@HyattConcierge confirmed with their team that they received my e-mail, but no instant activation. Just waiting now. Will update when I get a response.

Congratulations, you have achieved Diamond status through February 2016 – and earned 6,000 bonus points – through your participation in the Hyatt Gold Passport® trial Diamond offer.


To quote my Staples button, "That was easy!"

After waiting 36 hours, I became impatient and tweeted @HyattConcierge again. The representative took care of things in 15-20 minutes.

Is it still true that your status remains Diamond until the end of the month rather than exactly 60 days?

Does anybody know if this offer will be open till November 2nd? I read somewhere that the current offer is only open till Oct 31.

I have a lot of stays booked over the Christmas period (12th Night being Jan 2nd) and was hoping to make use of this.

I have two stays coming up that would add up to 12 days. The first stay starts more than 60 days before the last stay ends. The end dates are within 60 days of one another. Does anyone know if, for a 6-night stay, whether they register towards the challenge on a day by day basis, or whether they lump together at checkout? I figure I could start the challenge during the first stay, in that case. Thanks!

You need 12 nights in a 60 day period. Any nights consumed outside of that period, even if part of a single reservation, do not count.

Just a quick question....do nights booked via Amex FHR and virtuoso count towards the challenge?

I have a 2 week Hyatt extravaganza in Japan upcoming and would dearly love to leverage status to my benefit.

Yes - these are eligible rates and count for status as well as the challenge.

Hi I got some questions here:

If I apply for the challenge with my IHG Status, the recent stay was a point stay. Would that count? Or it has to be a paid stay?

For the 12- night stay, would point/cash count, if they are available? Now I don't
see that available in the hotel/time that I choose.

When will point/cash available?

Thanks!

Should count since I don't believe they clearly call out on summary screen award vs. paid.

As answered many times in previous pages, yes P&C counts as an eligible rate for the challenge. It will depend entirely on the hotel and may not ever be available. Purely at the hotel's discretion.

You have to call to find out if P+C rate is available, you can't see it online.
