World of Hyatt is making some big changes to its elite status qualifications for the 2021 calendar year and giving members more time to accelerate points earnings and boost tier status. Given the current travel environment it is nice to see loyalty programs providing these types of offers. Check out the specifics below.
What Are the Details on 2021 Status?
For the 2021 calendar year, World of Hyatt will be reducing the Base Point and Tier-Qualifying Night requirements by 50 percent. This helps members achieve or requalify for status and enjoy elite benefits in half the time. The reduced 2021 elite status qualifications include the following.
- Discoverist – Stay five Tier-Qualifying Nights or earn 12,500 Base Points
- Explorist – Stay 15 Tier-Qualifying Nights or earn 25,000 Base Points
- Globalist – Stay 30 Tier-Qualifying Nights or earn 50,000 Base Points
On top of that, World of Hyatt Credit Cardmembers can take advantage of the reduced elite status criteria, with the ability to earn top-tier Globalist status in 2021 by staying as few as 25 qualifying nights.
What Are the Details on Promotions?
In addition the current offers such as Bonus Journeys, Free Nights on Sale and Dine Local, Earn Triple Points will be extended through February 28, 2021, giving World of Hyatt members even more time to boost their tier status and earn more points. Here are the details on each of these offers.

- Free Nights on Sale– World of Hyatt members can receive 15% of their redeemed points back as Bonus Points, plus free parking, when they redeem points for free night stays.

- Dine Local, Earn Triple Points– World of Hyatt members will continue earning triple points on eligible spend for dine-in, takeout or delivery (when not staying the night) at participating outlets at Hyatt hotels and resorts through February 28, 2021.
