Booking via Expedia
Expedia.com.hk some nice rates (+30$ F&B credit per day) - if book via Expedia, assume still get Hyatt points ?

Also, note that I got this promo for Q4 2018 and the promotional points did not show up in the line item breakdown. It was just added directly to the stay total.

Going to Vegas for my birthday, and had a few questions. 1. Would virtuoso bookings earn the double points? (They are treated as direct bookings for Hyatt properties) 2. As a globalist, I status matched to MLife Gold, but if I add my MLife number, won't the points credit to MLife instead of WOH? Anyway to double dip the benefits of MLife Gold but earn WOH points? Thanks

Double-dipping is automatic - you'll earn both Mlife TCs and WoH credits/points. (Note that Mlife only earns tier credits for spend, which is probably why it works this way.)

That assessment is a bit extreme. I had a stay at an MGM property last week in Las Vegas, which posted points in my Hyatt account about 5-6 days after my stay... double points and 1K/night bonus included. The bonus points were not itemized separately, as others have mentioned. If there is an issue with Hyatt points posting, it is best to contact the MGM property about a couple of weeks after the stay, so they can research and help resolve any missing points.
