Hyatt and American Airlines plan to provide members of both brands’ loyalty programs more perks and benefits.

Now, AAdvantage Gold, Platinum, Platinum Pro, Executive Platinum and ConciergeKey members earn one AAdvantage bonus mile for every dollar spent at Hyatt properties. Additionally, ConciergeKey members receive World of Hyatt Globalist status.

Similarly, World of Hyatt Discoverist, Explorist and Globalist members earn one World of Hyatt bonus point for every dollar spent on qualifying American Airlines flights.

Limited time status challenges for both loyalty programs are upcoming. The above benefits go into effect at a later, unannounced date.

“We are thrilled to further expand our relationship with the world’s largest airline to offer our elite members more exclusive and meaningful experiences throughout their travel journey,” said Amy Weinberg, senior vice president, World of Hyatt. “Through our continued commitment to listening to member feedback, we learned that an ideal airline and hotel relationship would make the travel experience more seamless by providing dual earning and status options. We are excited to introduce an offering that delivers just that, while increasing value for our elite members through more personalized experiences and enhanced recognition.”

“We value our elites and the time they spend with us in the air. Now we’re able to provide them with an elevated travel experience that touches their full journey and gives them more ways to earn miles,” added Bridget Blaise-Shamai, president, AAdvantage. “World of Hyatt is a perfect match for AAdvantage with the level of recognition, care and dedication they provide to their elites.”

Amansara Review

It was more than a car journey; it was a transition between worlds. At our first hotel in Siem Reap, huge coaches constantly pulled up outside the lobby to deposit or receive international tour groups; we departed in very different style, in a 1965 black Mercedes limousine once owned by King Sihanouk. The mundanities of mass tourism were left behind. We progressed through the chaotic Cambodian streets in regal comfort and soon arrived at a solid gate.
