M life Sapphire and Pearl Members will be welcomed to Hyatt Gold Passport membership. M life Gold, Platinum and NOIR members will be eligible to opt-in to Platinum status in the Hyatt Gold Passport program

Looks like no MLife match to Diamond!
I would have thought NOIR would be matched to Diamond

I think it's fair. Diamond isn't matched to Noir and Noir isn't matched to Diamond.

The noir comped airport limo pickup would be amazing if that was the case.

I'm not sure after reading through the FAQ's, but if you charge your entire Hakkasan (MGM) or Light/Daylight/Eclipse (MB) bill to your room, will you be able to earn Hyatt points off them?

Similarly, can you earn Hyatt points off Cirque du Soleil and other shows if booked to your room?

FAQ's just say up to $5,000 in incidental spend

The definition of the word "mirage":
"Something that appears real or possible but is not." That's why.

Knowing that I might be unpopular with this post - but this is another very US centric enhancement that will not help those GP members that are mostly loyal to Hyatt in Europe and Asia.
It would be nice to see at one point some incentives for non US residents....

This is meh to me. I don't go to Vegas unless I have to, because I hate Vegas. Let's hope those gamble addicts (MLife elites) wouldn't dilute too much of our Diamond benefits.

Well as someone who stays 3 nights a month at the Hyatt Place in Vegas I am pleased by this. As long as I can earn points on these stays with Hyatt for the big vacations this is a great addition to GP. I like that I now have a an option of a place to stay where I can get a great meal (hopefully food points will carry over as well).

I look forward to to reading more about this, but don't worry Hyatt Place-Vegas, I will still be back regularly when I want a quick in and out and a quiet stay.

Wonderful news! ^^ I wonder why we need to wait for August for benefits as partnership starts June 20th?

My guess is that it was too expensive to move Vegas to Europe or Asia.

I'm a big fan of this move...haven't stayed at any of the MGM properties in over 10 years...this will definitely change that!^ to Hyatt!

This is awsome news. I have a "newbie Las Vegas question"
On M Life Platinum loyalty program one of the benefits is complementery buffet pass line. I understand that your able to enter the VIP portion of the line but does that also include the buffet being free or do you have to still pay for it?

I have MLife Platinum and do not gamble very much. Most of my tier credits come from resort spend and business meals during conferences.

I'm likely the minority in that respect, but be aware that MLife elites can gain status in a variety of ways.

It's just a cut the line pass. Still need to pay for the buffet unless it's been comped through other means.
