If you already have Caesars, you can match into MGM in Atlantic City. I don't think they will match in Vegas but possibly at some other MGM properties around the country where they have a local Caesars property in competition. Hyatt apparently hasn't done matches for a few years.

Pro Tip on making the Hyatt website faster
Open an incognito window and sign in from there. I don't know ... they are doing normally but I see about a 5-10x speedup with the site when doing this. I just discovered this today...

Does anyone know why some corporate Hyatt rates charge a lot more for second adult?
Heres an example:
Member Rate: 154.00
Corporate Rate 1 adult: 140.00
Corporate Rate with second adult: 164.00
Also are Globalists entitled to second adult fee waved?
Thanks for your help :-)

Would there be an issue if I have two overlapping reservations under my name at two different hotels? I'll be checking into one hotel with family (4 total) for a Monday to Friday reservation. Wife and I will check out Thursday (rest of family remains) and we'll check into a different hotel on Thursday. I know I'll only get points and night credits for one reservation but just wondering if they will cancel a reservation since they know I cannot physically be in both hotels for two days.

You'll be fine; nothing wrong with having multiple rooms in different hotels, I have even had rooms in different countries simultaneously.

I have an award rez for 4 nights (plus a second room for the kids on the paid family rate). Attached a club access award to each room. I am considering adding on 2 nights but would like to do so as paid nights (and also extend the kid room rez). Any suggestion on best way to do this? I don't want to have to use 2 more club awards. Can they add on paid nights to existing rez? merge? It's the GH Playa del Carmen.

Will my Globalist Concierge be able to help me, I have a 7 night award stay coming up at one of the category 2 hotels that will become category 1. That would equal quite a sum of award points back if I can get the 3000 points a night back, however the week is no longer available on points

Does a free night award count as tier-qualifying credit towards nights? I had one earlier this year that seems to have added a night to my counter but my latest one in Bogota didn't.

It should. I just had a three night award stay and it counted towards my Qualifying nights to Globalist.

If the nights haven't posted after 3 days, call and ask about it. I had 2 stays around December/January not post automatically. A phone call fixed it in both cases.
Also, the free nights count towards the current promotion (1000 pts/night starting with your 2nd stay) I just had a 2-night stay using two cat 1-4 certs and got 2000 pts and 2 qual nights.

Loving Hyatt IT so far...yes, I know it's not perfect, but it is light years better than Marriott.
HOWEVER - why do I have to re-type my e-mail address every time I check out in the app, to be sent the folio email? Everything is in there in my profile....what am I missing?

I'm using the Android App, that may be the difference. It also has more functionality than the iOS app... e.g. I can modify a reservation in Android, but not on my iPad...
