🚨 Big changes are coming to World of Hyatt on May 20th!

Hyatt is moving from a 3-tier pricing system (Off-Peak/Standard/Peak) to a 5-tier system: Lowest, Low, Moderate, Upper, and Top.

While Hyatt is keeping its category structure (Cat 1-8), the price ceiling is rising significantly: 

📈 Category 4: Max price goes from 18k ➡️ 25k points. 

📈 Category 8: Max price goes from 45k ➡️ 75k points!

Pro-tip: Any bookings made before May 20th are locked in at the old rates. If a property moves DOWN in category after you book, Hyatt will proactively refund you the difference!
