I applied for WoH CC during their double qualifying nights promo and the terms stated promo thru 31st of Dec.
At 27 nights after a 4 night stay from 12/24-12/27. My 4 extra nights didn't post, but it should in January right and it would count towards Globalist for the next year?

Update: I received the two Suite Upgrade rewards and contacted the globalist line, And unfortunately, there weren't any suites available. I figure so since it's the week of new years.
I have a reservation in October for 3 weeks, and will still have two suite upgrades, so can I use two on that visit to cover 2 of the 3 weeks, and just move to a standard room thereafter for a week? Or should I just trying to rebook 3 separate 7 night bookings back to back to hopefully use 2 suite upgrades and just a standard room during the last week?

I just received an upgrade automatically to a Regency Suite for my stay today (one night). I'll see what they do for the stay after that one. fingers crossed

I just received this email from WOH encouraging me to go for Globalist:
However I need 6 more nights and there's only one night left in calendar year 2021. Impossible, right? I assume it's just an automated email without any date calculation logic, but thought I'd ask in case a mattress run is still possible. Thanks!
On the Horizon: Globalist Status
The best is yet to come: Globalist status
You’re well on your way to even more exclusive experiences. Remember, requirements are relaxed in 2021 so you can qualify or re-qualify for elite status with half the Tier-Qualifying Nights or half the Base Points. Right now, you’re just 6 qualifying nights away from Globalist status, the most elevated way to keep you feeling cared for and rewarded...

If I am booking a points stay (for a HP in Phoenix) but want to book a second room in the same hotel, can I do it for a cash reservation under my name/account? The globalist benefits (Guest of Honor) are not important for the second room (family) for this particular hotel. It's easier for me to book, I understand it won't count toward elite nights but appreciate any points that come my way from this. Can I do this or should I be booking this under the family members (non-elite) account?

Fairly new to Hyatt. Previously didn't pay much attention to Hotel loyalty but decided to focus on Hyatt and made Globalist by the end of 2021.
I am going with family on a Mediterranean Cruise this summer and we will have a few nights on either end. We plan to get three rooms at the Park Hyatt in Istanbul for a few nights. It's category 4, and looking at the price, points get a pretty good value (around 2.3 cents). I can easily cover it all with points, including some transferred from Chase, and I have a few free night certs (and this seems like fantastic value to use those). The others going with us don't have Hyatt status (and may not even have accounts at all).
What's the best way to go about this? Put everything under my account/name or do one for myself and then two Guest of Honor reservations? I know that no matter what, I'll only get EQN for one room, so it would seem GoH + getting them to make accounts and putting their numbers on the GoH reservations is the best option? Is there any reason to just have them all under my name instead? And I've never made a GoH reservation, but believe I've read I have to call in to do that? Will I see those in the app/my account?

The last activity in my Hyatt account is a checkout on Jan 16, 2020. This means my points will expire unless I do something by Jan 15, 2022. Is that correct?
It appears the easiest thing would be to transfer 1,000 Chase UR points on Jan 14. Should I transfer sooner to be safe?

With luck we'll be able to travel and stay at a Hyatt before Dec 31, 2023.

Good morning. Happy and healthy and safe new year to all. Wondering about the timing of posting of WOH points for JDV by Hyatt hotel stays.
For HR, GH, HP and HH my points (and associated awards) have always posted on the afternoon of the day after checkout, about 24-30 hours after checkout. I checked out of a JDV Hyatt hotel in the morning 2 days ago, was expecting to see the points yesterday afternoon, so far bupkis. It’s my 100th TQN this year and also my 5th brand, so expecting a couple of rewards as well, including an award (FNA Cat 1-4) I’d like to try to redeem ASAP.
Is that typical, do JDV points (and associated awards) take longer to post? Should I be concerned?
Thank you.

I’m on an award stay. The hotel gave me a $40 credit for a customer service issue. If I check out without billing anything to the room, will the credit be processed as a refund to my credit card, or will I lose it?
