Quick Update On The Hyatt Category Changes
Don’t forget to enter my Sterling Silver Starbucks card giveaway. Now that I’m not on a train anymore, I took a few minutes to go over the Hyatt Gold Passport award category changes we learned about earlier this evening.

Just In Case Anyone Thinks Business Travel Is Super Awesome….
I spend a lot of time talking about points and miles, reviewing hotels and commenting on this and that in the world of travel. I’m always happy to share my experiences with you in the hopes that it makes your future travel experience more enjoyable.
