Can you do Diamond challenge two consecutive years ?

Last year I successfully completed Hyatt Diamond Challenge (with total of 16 stays) and 'am assuming I will be dropped to platinum this March.

I am Marriott Platinum with 90 nights last year and wanted to have some of my stays moved to Hyatt this year. Can I request for Hyatt Diamond Challenge this year as well?

I apologize I’m sure this is clarified somewhere but I honestly cannot find it. In order to use Diamond upgrades do they have to be applied at time of booking via the Diamond upgrade line, or can they be applied to existing reservations whenever?

Ideally I would like to be approved for the challenge and get the upgrades/reservations setup now, and then start the challenge in the summer. However, I have a strong feeling that’s not possible.

So then it’s weighing failing the challenge (which I probably will still do anyways), but at least having the upgrades ahead of time, versus waiting so that I’ll at least have Diamond status overlapping the planned stays but miss out on the upgrades potentially.

A quick question. Does an existing reservations count towards the Diamond Trial.

For example, I booked a reservation now (Feb, 2013)for a stay in May, 2013; I started my Diamond trial in April, 2013, does that count towards the qualification for the diamond trial?

Thanks,

Yi

As long as the stay occurs during your trial, you should be covered.

I'm a little surprised though by your start date; others have asked about starting the trial at a future date, but everything I've seen has the trial starting immediately.

I think OP is planning on requesting the Challenge in April, but have to secure a reservation now.

Challenge denied

So I emailed asking about the challenge, got the standard form letter email asking for proof of status with another program, emailed a screen shot of my Hilton Gold status, and then received an email saying that since I had no Hilton stays showing on my screen shot, I was ineligible for the challenge.

Very frustrating when so many others have gotten it with no questions asked.

Why not reply with a screenshot with your Hilton stays?

I had to show my SPG stays + status.
