If you're points rich then it might make sense to book cat 1 with 5k (3750 with rebate) instead of cash, otherwise you're essentially buying points/certs. I'm doing 20 nights and I'm more than happy to spend 75k points at cat 1 to get the milestones rewards and globalist. I use 1.5 cpp valuation however, so ymmv

53 nights YTD, with 9 booked, Cat 1-7 cert and 2 more TSU. I’m not sure I’ll hit 70 milestone with CC spend.
I should start 2021with 11 nights from double nights promotion.

I would like to go to Thailand next year but for that reason, Hyatt is not on the horizon so I need to load up on Hyatt nights October-December 2020 to make as much progress as possible NOW for 2022 qualification. So far 25% of the way to Globalist, more progress to come in the next 2.5 months.

I'm at 8 nights YTD. I'm still traveling for work but to places where Hyatt's footprint is much worse than Hilton, Marriott and IHG so it's been hard.

I closed out the year with 60 nights even with a 5-night stay concluding December 31st.
I had four nights prior to COVID starting, then all the rest from June 30th onward. With the promotions, I earned around 93,000 points from my 33 nights during COVID. The majority of my COVID nights were at the same hotel, Quirk Charlottesville, but I did get to check out a couple new places as well (Ocean City MD, Chapel Hill NC, and others). Hopefully this coming year will see a bit more variety!
- 5 Credit Card base nights
- 18 Credit Card spend-based nights
- 4 Award nights
- 33 Paid nights (plus four additional nights from Prive 3rd Night Free that didn't count)

I wish Hyatt was competitive with other chains here in Thailand but their rates are crazy, same as pre-covid. Not planning to do anything under these circumstances. 7 nights right now from JAN/FEB.
If local hotels would lower their rates fine but as it looks like right now I’m closing 2020 out with 100+ Marriott nights.

Are you referring to "rollover" nights, or the double nights for stays concluding in 2021?
Looking for data points on how quickly the double nights are posting. Have a 13 night MR later this month (+5 CC nights already posted), followed almost immediately (before promo ends) by two stays where Globalist would be extremely valuable. Trying to get a barometer check on how quickly the double nights will post to trigger Globalist, or whether it truly will be after the promo ends.
Any DPs would be helpful!
