Here’s the scoop:
- The Hyatt Gold Passport – MGM M Life partnership is the richest in Las Vegas. It lets you earn and redeem points across both programs, and get status recognition too.
- You can get Hyatt Platinum status just for having the Hyatt Visa. And Hyatt Platinum gets you Gold status and recognition at 12 resorts in Las Vegas – upgrades, priority checkin, buffet line passes, VIP night club access.
- Hyatt Diamonds get even more (I love skipping the taxi queue).
- There’s a new website for this relationship that features free room, points, and experience giveaways.
I’m giving away 75,000 Hyatt Gold Passport points to a reader drawn at random from those leaving comments on this blog post, continue reading to learn more.
Last year Hyatt introduced a partnership with MGM M Life that was really revolutionary in the hotel industry.
Hyatt Gold Passport and MGM M Life offered both reciprocal points earning and redemption, and also elite status recognition, in what amounted to a hotel alliance (akin to the major airline alliances).

The fountains in front of the Bellagio
Las Vegas was a clear gap area for major chain hotels. IHG had Venetian, Starwood a Westin, Hilton an off-strip property. Starwood subsequently introduced their own partnership with Caesars but it was less extensive, not earning status nights or receiving status recognition across the chains.
In one swoop Hyatt Gold Passport had the best presence in Las Vegas, and MGM had its own global footprint for M Life members as well.
They’ve just launched a digital hub that will help travelers explore Vegas and make the most of the Hyatt Gold Passport and MGM M life relationship.
There’s daily content and regular giveaway opportunities like free nights at M life resorts, Hyatt Gold Passport points, and show tickets.

Very Vegas-y. Lotsa glitz. Content…not so much.
I think you have a better chance of being tunneled than winning the 75k. Good luck.
Didn’t see any giveaways or promotions, but then my eyes may have been distracted by all the moving boxes. Digital!
It’s lunchtime now and the Food and Drink section is looking very enticing!
Entertainment Section is great

Would be nice to go to Mirage again to check out the volcanoes. Those were my favorite as a kid.
The food is just sooooo awesome! I absolutely love the variety!
Definitely need to have some buffets 🙂 Vegas is especially for that!
Oooh, spa After Dark. If I feel like a massage at 11pm, I can get a massage at 11pm… without it sounding seedy.
Not the biggest fan of Gambling, but when in Rome, do as the Romans do. I’m going to limit myself to…. $200. HAHA
We can’t wait to be a couple of wolves roaming around the desert in search of burgers, brews, and the Blue Man Group.
Whiskey on a Whim is calling my name…
