Marriott’s lifetime titanium. I am thinking of moving to Hyatt. Has anyone done this? Any advice? I have 3-4 years of travel left before retiring.

If I were you and thought I could make the base point requirement, or at least get close, I’d probably switch. I plan on traveling for pleasure after I retire so the additional status would be nice for the flexibility.

I have. If you travel to locations where there are a few Hyatt's, then this is a good option. I lost Hyatt status last year since where I travel now, Hyatt's are scarce. Much better program, points value, etc.

I’ve been thinking about this as well because Marriott’s status program is complete garbage now. So also interested.

I do know they won’t do status matches or challenges as I asked.

I did about 5 years ago, and aside from the small footprint, no regrets.

i mean yea once u have lifetime no more incentive to stat padding right

hyatt is nice just small footprint

I did it a couple years ago and did a status match challenge - no regrets. Still end uk staying at Marriotts quite a bit due to limited Hyatt locations. Recommend you look and make sure you time it when you have some nights planned and can maximize your challenge for new Hyatt status.

I did this a few years ago! DM me! also lifetime titanium..

I also have a few HYATT things that i can transfer/trade for Marriott Points.. Hyatt has a GOH which gives you globalist status on a stay up to 7 days- (I have a few of those that expire in 2027!) I also have hyatt points i’d trade at the right ratio..I’m looking for 100k marriott points total!

I’m in the midst of doing the exact same thing. It seems like the right choice.

The properties just generally same nicer, and I don’t so much care about the status, I just want a nicer room experience.

Does anybody do this where you take, maybe 1 day, to create multiple 3 day weekends scattered throughout the year for little trips instead of taking vaca in longer stints? Do you feel more refreshed with lots of smaller trips, or more with a few long trips? Kids are 1 & 3.
