Our Verdict
As reader NinjaX likes to point out, if everybody has status, nobody has status. That being said if your a Chase Hyatt cardholder you might as well enroll in this promotion. I personally don’t think chasing status is a good idea because it makes me make irrational booking decisions, but I know others get great benefits from it.
