The Churning Approach to Hyatt Status

Maintaining top-tier Globalist status within the Hyatt program can be achieved through strategic churning methods, rather than relying solely on expensive hotel stays. The concept of mattress runs involves booking hotel stays merely to accrue night credits, often without actually staying overnight. Recent promotions have significantly lowered the number of nights required to reach Globalist status, making it more accessible; for instance, the requirement was halved from 60 to 30 nights during a pandemic promotion, allowing more individuals to achieve this elite status. This strategic approach has enabled many, including the speaker, to sustain their loyalty standing at Hyatt even with reduced travel activity.
