New Membership Packets - 2017
 
Got mine yesterday.
I like the elephant on the card, and the rubber bands are nice.

Oh yeah, got the passes too.
Are Globs the only ones who get those?

Also, I noticed the order of the names on the card spells-out the "GED" mnemonic for remembering the statuses, except "Globalist" is in white.

I already suggest the GED mnemonic elsewhere in this forum. Before I discovered it, I found it hopeless to remember which was the lowest tier and which one was the middle tier.

In WOH, most benefits go only to Globs, so I would expect the same to be true for the UA lounge passes.

I was paying homage to you with my reference. It is an excellent mnemonic.^

The pack of cards that I just described in the "WOH has arrived" thread has member in white and then Discoverererist in light turquoise, Explorerererist in medium blue, and then Glob in navy blue. The cards are colored accordingly with Courtesy Card in bright green.

Received mine too. The blue rubber band...LOL

Got mine today (explorist). Think it looks hideous - clearly used the same design agency as the WOH logo. It just looks and feels cheap and from the 1990s (just like all the WOH design stuff). Note the background image was part of the mailer insert.

Good lord, that's atrocious.

On the bright side it should lessen the complaints should WOH decide to go down the digital card only option down the track...

https://www.ausbt.com.au/new-world-o...mp-affects-you has a photo of earlier versions of the card.
The cards look pretty ugly and I wonder how much Hyatt paid to get the photos on the cards 'fixed' while leaving the design itself untouched.

I like the camera. Can't wait to get mine!

Edit: Crap, I guess mine will have the gold elephant.

I like the pack. Very subdued and easy to recycle. Not a lot of extra junk. To bad they couldn't figure out a way to may the card not plastic (or metal...)

The cards are a bit blah but who really carries their card anyway? (I don't carry any of my loyalty cards. I even stopped carrying my United Club card since they only look at your boarding pass these days.)

FWIW

My god - I loved the old school classy black diamond cards from a few years ago. These look like crappy old phone calling cards.
