Hyatt Targeted Fall Promotion Up To 50,000 Bonus Points

I learned via One Mile at a Time that Hyatt has sent out some targeted emails on its fall promotion. I haven’t received my email yet, but Lucky reports an offer of up to 50,000 points when you stay 20 nights. The way it works is you get bonus points for every 5 nights between September 1 and November 30, 2014.

To see if you qualify for the promotion, visit this link and enter your Hyatt Gold Passport number: Hyatt 50,000 Points for 20 Nights Promotion. 

The more nights you stay, the more points you earn per night. Although the bonus is only given out every 5 nights, here’s how it works:

• First 5 nights earns 1,000 points per night.
• Next 5 nights earns 2,000 points per night.
• Next 5 nights earns 3,000 points per night.
• Next 5 nights earns 4,000 points per night.

If you stay all 20 nights, you end up earning 2,500 points per night. If you do have lots of business travel and end up going for all of it, then 50,000 points can be quite valuable. It’s enough for two award nights at Park Hyatt Vienna (25,000 points a night) or three award nights at Andaz Peninsula Papagayo (15,000 points a night).

I personally prefer to use Hyatt Gold Passport points for Points and Cash rates. Not only are those nights eligible for earning status, but they can be upgraded with Diamond Suite Upgrades that come with Diamond status. For 12,500 points + $150 a night, we can book at stay at the Park Hyatt Vienna and upgrade to a 1,200 square foot suite. That’s exactly what I did on my trip to Vienna in July and posted a video of the room: Video of a Suite at Park Hyatt Vienna

I tried registering for the promotion, but wasn’t eligible. Neither was Svetlana and she is Diamond at this point. But even so, Hyatt will probably send out some more emails with different promotions so we’ll see what comes up.

Which Nights are Eligible Towards the Promotion?

To participate successfully in the promotion, here are the rules for which nights will count:

• Paid nights at Hyatt properties are eligible when the rate earns points (e.g. many third party bookings will not count).
• Paid nights at MGM M Life properties are not eligible.
