World of Hyatt Delays Peak Pricing, Adds Flexibility

Any word on points for dining/spa credit?

This is good news but doesn't really help.

What this does is helps those with reservations made before the Covid-19 pandemic. That is helpful. It helped me with one IHG reservation.

What this doesn't help is my future travel plans. I cannot help it if some business travel gets cancelled. One trip is very important and needs to take place but is postponed. All the bonuses in the world is not going to help. Some bonuses might help the leisure traveler who then decides to take a trip. It only mildly helps the near term possible business trips in that I know that there's not a cancellation penalty but this Covid-19 thing is going to be with us for a minimum of one year. The cat is already out of the bag in Europe (and probably the US). China is tapering down but is starting to get reinfected by Americans.

Does Anyone know if anything will be done to extend The expiration dates free night certificates ?

@derek

I don't understand your post. What do you expect Hyatt (or any other business) to help you or do better with your "future travel plans".
Or you are just venting out your frustrations. Don't we all?

I think so far Hyatt is being fair and generous.

I was interested in booking one of the 100 properties after shifting to a lower categories. I guess it won't happen until 2021!

Safe travels!

I was also thinking the same thing like @Lucky @Jerry. What about the free night certificates? Would those get extended? Also, would the club access awards get extended, too? I mean Hyatt has probably been the most generous thus far, but one still could hope more for good news.

They still are not extending free night certificated unless you live in Asia.
I asked for an extension and was denied.

So my status has been extended. My club upgrades expired on feb 28 2021. No change. My suit upgrades that expired on feb 28 2021. No change. My suite upgrades that expired on feb 28 2020 have not been extended. My status has been extended to 2022. I used all my free nights.

Marriott has extended all free night certificates to Jan 31, 2021.... reasonable to ask why Hyatt is not doing the same.

Lucky, where does it say on Hyatt's official website/communications that category changes will be delayed? The email I received from them only seemed to mention peak/off-peak changes would be delayed. Please let me know if I missed it somewhere...
