Winners Announced in Hyatt Gold Passport Point Giveaway

Hyatt Gold Passport generously provided 66,000 points for me to give away this week in celebration of their new promotion (register here).

There are two prizes – 44,000 points, enough for two nights at any Hyatt in the world (or more nights if you aren’t redeeming for their most expensive properties) and 22,000 points.

The first prize winner, with thanks to random.org, is #17,086. Alicia wants to stay at the Park Hyatt Vendome in Paris. She’ll win 44,000 points, enough for two nights there.

The second prize winner is #14,350. Crash wants to stay at the Hyatt House Fort Lauderdale Airport – South. S/he’ll win 22,000 points, enough for two nights there with 6000 left over.

Congratulations to you both, and thanks to everyone who entered, nearly 19,000 eligible entries was truly unprecedented!

  1. Just out of curiosity, I used my browser’s “FIND” feature to see how many entries Alicia and Crash entered during the contest. Check this out…

    Crash went with a high-volume approach entering the contest a staggering 314 times. Whereas Alicia entered… brace yourself folks… 1 very lucky time!!!

    I was somewhere in between with only 52 entries and obviously didn’t take the prize with my middle of the road approach.

    At any rate congrats to the winners.

  2. @Justanotherblogger just amused me at the time I made that decision, seemed like fun, nothing more than momentary whimsy 🙂

  3. Shh. Don’t give Hyatt any ideas. I’d argue value under $600 (no matter than the points can potentially be used to secure lodging priced at over $600) and thus no 1099 should be generated.

  4. It is nice that such drawings are afforded to us, your loyal fans ! Congrats to the victors ! Looking forward to more ops !

  5. I tried to enter but the system was overwhelmed the few times I tried
    I think one entry per person may have been the way to go
    congrats to the winners

  6. Definitely think the “one entry per person” is the way to go for future contests. Is it possible some people used automated mechanisms to post/enter repeatedly? …
