For a current globalist that will have more than 60 nights and requal anyways, I do not see any downside of the changes.
55 or 60, I do not care. lol. Won't affect 2019, either.
Added bonuses are
a) extra cat4 cert for staying at five different brands. (Yearly? Prob not.)
b) Your choice of 5,000 Bonus Points, a $100 Hyatt Gift Card after 40th or whatever. I'd definitely pick gift card.
They didn't seem to take any benefits away, correct?

I hope it's still the same as always been or I have almost no reason to stay at Hyatt anymore.

There would be lots of folks leaving, and such a system would be very out of step with other hotel programs.

It’s too bad that Hyatt continues not to offer anything based on base points beyond 100k.
I’m at over 200k base points but less than 40 nights and surpassing 100k base points get me nothing.

I have already re-qualified for Globalist next year (i.e. through Feb.2020).
In 2019, if I do 50 nights, I would get TWO suite upgrades. If I do 55 nights, I would qualify for Globalist again, but will NOT get the remaining TWO suite upgrades. I will only get these remaining TWO upgrades when I hit 60 nights. Correct? If so, then that would be worse off than Globalists in 2018 (who got all FOUR suite upgrades upon hitting 55 nights)?

nothing after 100 nights
it’s simply unbelievable that I crossed 110 nights and you don’t get any points or upgrades after 100 nights.... clearly this is another major flaw with the WOH program, and I’m sure I’m not the only one that is beyond frustrated with this...

Granted, not quite at the scale of Marriott, but nothing at Hyatt is at that scale
. Unfettered access to the payment systems of 250 properties in 50 countries for four months is pretty bad.
