Hyatt Devaluation March 26th 2024.
Here is your friendly reminder to book those Hyatt stays on points before March 26th 2024!
Some Hyatt hotel points prices are increasing in 2-3 days! My parents just locked in a stay for February 2025 at the Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall for 4 nights!
A $2800 hotel stay for 140k Blue Bank points and zero dollars!
Most of the all inclusive resorts are increasing from 30-40k points a night at the lowest to 40-50k points per night.
Most of these all inclusive resorts cost $600+ per night. In my parents situation they got 4 nights at 35k a night for February 2025. Booked today on March 23 2024. Compared to the $2800 cash price this is a 2 cents per point value. Which is great!
Value can still be had after the price increase but you will get a much better rate for certain properties if you have a trip date in kind for 2024/2025 and you can book now. In just a few days this same stay would cost my parents 20k more points.
For example last we just booked the Park Hyatt Zanzibar for 3 nights for March 2025 at 20k points per night. That stay will increase by 5k points per night at the cheapest. We saved 15k points. We stayed at the Thompson Madrid in early 2023 for 15k points a night which we booked in 2022. That property has increased in price last year by 5k points and after March 26th 2024 it increase by 5k points again now costing 25k points a night.
There is a saying in the points and miles world. "Earn and Burn!" With constant devaluations year after year it's important to earn these points and get a good value for them while you can. Hyatt hotel stays still remain one of the best and most consistent values for Blue Bank Points even through this devaluation. But keep in mind the rules to the game change every day. Make a plan to earn some points and have a trip in mind to use them on. Another travel phrase I live by is "Book early, and book often!"
