cityfishing Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 Hyatt usually runs promotions that give extra bonus points for stays at certain hotels. I assume it is usually done for properties with expected low occupancy rates. Do PL stays qualify for these offers? Usually you have to enter a code like GP1000 or GP2000 when making a regular reservation. You can also request it when checking in but have not tried it in conjuction with a PL booked room. Has anyone tried this and been successful? Hyatt has usually been pretty friendly to PL customers giving them both stay credits and points for incidentals.
bbbb Posted July 1, 2004 Report Posted July 1, 2004 The Diamond desk will not add these points to your account any more.So if you can"t get the hotel to add the bonus at check-in or out,you get nothing.

It will never hurt to ask the front desk personnel when checking out to add the appropriate bonus point amount to the bonus field of the folio.
hotturnip Posted July 17, 2004 Report Posted July 17, 2004 I never do this, however, because Hyatt is already nice enough to give us GP credit for all incidental points as well as stay credits that count toward Faster Free Nights and other promotions. I also got the 10,000 point stay-3-times Platinum promotion. AND they honor my Platinum amenity certificate on PL stays. Given all that, I think it's asking too much to get the few bonuses they don't give.
bbbb Posted July 17, 2004 Report Posted July 17, 2004 I don"t ask for bonus points on PL stays because I feel Hyatt is already giving plenty with the stay credit and diamond amenity.
cityfishing Posted July 19, 2004 Author Report Posted July 19, 2004 hotturnip - what is the 10,000 point stay-3-times Platinum promotion? Thanks.
pnb Posted July 20, 2004 Report Posted July 20, 2004 I think hotturnip was referring to a promotion that was targeted to both Gold Passport Diamond and Platinum members.As a Diamond member, I got the following:Earn 15,000 Bonus Points After 5 StaysYou're automatically registered to earn 15,000 bonus points. Simply complete 5 stays at any Hyatt worldwide between March 15 and May 31, 2004, and receive 15,000 bonus points towards free nights.Platinum had an equivalent 10,000 Bonus Points After 3 Stays.
flyme2 Posted August 4, 2004 Report Posted August 4, 2004 It will never hurt to ask the front desk personnel when checking out to add the appropriate bonus point amount to the bonus field of the folio.You are correct, sir!I guess some of us aren't as altruistic as others when it comes to points. :)
