I like SPG, the points have most bang for your buck. Marriott and SPG will eventually merge but probably not until 2018, and they are currently rocky anyway (rumors merger will fail, TBD though).
Get status in 1 program first. Then apply to the other but mention your status and ask them to pull even. They typically will for certain conditions (eg I had SPG Platinum so Hyatt gave me Diamond status on day 1 if I stay 20 nights in the next 2 months)
SPG first and foremost
Big fan of Hyatt. Park Hyatts are amazing
Hyatt is going to step up their loyalty game
I would do SPG + Hyatt. 125 nights total will get you top tier status and each is good in their own ways. Hyatt's free breakfast and Diamond Suite Upgrades will get you incredible value.
Whatever your team does. And then SPG. Also, get a card and get a friend a referral bonus.
Think I know you, M1
D2 keep getting that Becky or giving that Becky in that case
So then when signing up for two programs, which should I prioritize?
