Can anyone explain exactly how stay credits work? I just completed a stay from May 27-29th as shown in my original booked email but "Past Activity" shows 26-28. It's actually shifted 1 day earlier for ALL my stays at any property.
In this context it doesn't matter but I do have an upcoming stay that ends on Jan 1 2018 and I need to know since it'll affect requal.

There is no award availability at all for the Hyatt Place White House DC. None at all for the rest of the calendar. There are standard rooms available (or what I think would be standard rooms) such as "King Bed with Sofabed" and "King Bed no Sofabed" but these do not show up as bookable with awards. Is this a bug or a scam to prevent us from redeeming points?

Curiously, they are not offering awards on many other days these same room types are available.
I would suggest pm'ing WoH Concierge on the theory this may just be an error. (Of course, it may be the property blatantly violating WoH T&C, but I'd give them a chance to show it's an error before so concluding.)

I see awards available the very last night on the calendar (July 8, 2018), booking into King (with sofabed), King (no sofabed), or 2 Queens (with sofabed). I also see P&C for most of June 2018.

Kcardinal, do you have a Chase Sapphire preferred card? Or a Diners' Club card? Their points can be transferred into Hyatt. Or do you have a friend/ relative who is also a Hyatt member? S/He can transfer points from their account to yours fee-free.

Sorry I should have clarified. I am transferring all my Chase UR points to Hyatt for this stay. Still short 13k to stay at a cat 8 resort club level for 5 nights.
I have an Amex plat, USAA cash rewards, and a smattering of random miles stored in frequent flier and rental car accounts. I'm not sure if I can transfer points from them to Hyatt though (I know I can transfer my amex points to Hyatt).
No friends/family that can help from what I know :\

i have two free award nights that came with the chase hyatt card signup.
I just realized they are going to expire on July 1st. and I cannot travel over that weekend or before due to other commitments. Is there any way I could renew them? I know they could be used to sped two nights at up to Cat 7 hotels worldwide. But I obviously can't use them. Just curious, Can I sell them to some one (by making a reservation with a authorized user)?
Thanks.

Im considering a stay st the grand hyatt hong kong. I see i can book a base room on points. I also see i can pay for a base room and upgrade to club with extra points. Is there a way to book a club room purely on points? I don't see an option for this on the website
