READ MORE: World Of Hyatt Rate & Bonus Points PromotionsNote that this Elite Tier Offer is open for employees from select organizations that I would assume are companies such as Accenture and IBM. You must register using your company email address.
Here are the standard Tier qualification requirements:Explorist tier requires typically 30 nights or 50,000 base points ($10K in spend) and Globalist 60 nights or 100,000 base points within a calendar year.
Here are the elite benefits:The Globalist benefits are excellent, but Explorist ones just by themselves are not. You would normally earn milestone rewards on your way to Globalist qualification.
ConclusionIt makes sense for Hyatt to try to win business from corporate travelers and fast track them to Explorist or Globalist status. I would assume that there are readers that can use this offer once the current coronavirus pandemic is over.
