Going to hit ambassador at Marriott by end of March, should I switch to staying at Hyatts to build up a variety of points/loyalty or just keep it going for the points with Marriott? Curious on the thoughts here, never hit status this fast

I stick to one. That way you rack up more points so you can go to really nice places that suck up tons of points. Ex st Regis bora bora.

Hyatt will continue to be the best until they allow high status with its credit card, then it will become just like Marriott,Hilton and IHG. I would diversify.

Depends on your travel patterns.

If you plan on redeeming largely luxury destinations should be fine. Otherwise their footprint is limited. But redemption options and their top tier benefits are great.

How on earth have you hit ambassador by march??? That’s 100 nights!!!

Been living out of Marriotts for work since middle of January and will continue doing that through April, I miss my bed 😂 but yea that plus the promotion going on right now for the extra elite night each night makes it pretty easy

lol epic. I’m only a little over halfway there 😢

Stay with Marriott and redeem Bonvoy for airline miles so that your trips can be free.
