Our Verdict
This is only available to some corporate travelers, you’ll need to use your company e-mail to see if you’re eligible. Likely only worth trying if you work for a big company
Hat tip to Deals We Like
If you already have made reservations PRIOR to accepting the challenge offer, would it still count as long as the stay is during the 90 day period? Or would i have to cancel and rebook after I’ve accepted the challenge ?
Am I eligible for this if I did the bilt status in 2023?
If I signed up “during” a stay, does that entire stay count?
To anyone that has done this before, is it possible to use someone else’s work email and link it to your preexisting Hyatt account number? My significant other has a qualifying email, but I do not. I would have access to her email to register for the challenge, but would like to remove it from my Hyatt account after the match.
Yes, did that last year. You don’t even have to change your email on your account. Just enter you WOH number with the qualifying email and then have your wife confirm the confirmation email.
I think the fine print section is wrong because the 90 days seems to start whenever you register not when you check out of your first stay. I should have waited because I have a bunch of stays lined up but not until May… make sure to read the actual offer not just the DOC page which seems to be wrong. I’ll be happily corrected if it actually is after my first stay the 90 days starts.
I recall it being the same way. But, the T and C appears to say otherwise if you click on the link DOC provided
The promo page says: “Trial period begins upon registration.“
My company qualifies, im so stoked. My first time having globalist, I already have a trip with 20 nights booked next month.
Damn, I should not have activated this until I had stays lined up…
I just did the same thing and wrecked myself… so sad!!
After thinking about it though, 10 nights isn’t TOO bad. Will probably run it just to keep the Globalist — sort of like paying it up.
How does the every 3 year clock in the terms and conditions work? I did this in 2022. Does that mean I can do it again starting this year?
Abbvie company is eligible.
I did the Bilt status challenge, can I do this challenge? I see if it states Members may only register for a trial tier offer from Hyatt Sales Force once every 3 years. Really need this as my globalist now expires in Feb 2025.
