Lucky points to this offer from Hyatt — 5000 United miles per Hyatt stay through October 31.
For stays between September 1 and October 31, United 1K members can earn 5,000 miles per Hyatt stay (registration is required), and as far as I can tell there’s no limit. That means 5,000 miles for a $75 stay at a Hyatt Place hotel. That’s a deal in and of itself, but combine that with Faster Free nights, which will almost definitely be back, and I think we’re looking at quite a deal….
Now correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe this is combinable with any other bonus points opportunities, right?
While this offer is targeted to United 1Ks (The offer page says “United Airlines® Mileage Plus 1K members are invited…”), I wonder whether anyone can actually make use of it — you register, and Hyatt sends the miles over to United, I imagine there’s no actual check that you’re a 1K in order to get the bonus. The terms and conditions of the offer do not say that you need to be a 1K in order to earn the bonus — just that you have to sign up for the offer on the web page that ‘welcomes 1Ks’.
Actually, when you read the Terms of Service on the Hyatt site post-signup, it does say that a screening will be performed to make sure the member is 1K with United.
“United® Mileage Plus 1K membership will be validated to receive the bonus” appears to have been ADDED to the terms and conditions. I smell a rat.
