Travel News Asia Latest Travel News Podcasts Friday, 3 April 2009

Hyatt has launched ‘The Big Welcome’ - a global initiative that celebrates the introduction of an enhanced, more generously welcoming Hyatt Gold Passport guest loyalty program.

With ‘The Big Welcome,’ Hyatt has also launched a 10,000 free nights sweepstakes and a larger-than-life 365 night giveaway – in three regions worldwide – for a total of 31,095 free Hyatt nights.

“‘The Big Welcome’ is the way in which we have chosen to introduce travelers, and especially our existing Gold Passport members, to our redesigned Hyatt Gold Passport loyalty program. At a time when others may be tempted to cut back, we consider these enhancements a long-term investment in our business,” said Mark S. Hoplamazian, President and Chief Executive Officer of Global Hyatt Corporation. “Three people will win 365 free nights, 30,000 people will win one free night (10,000 in each of three regions around the world), and countless others will have a chance to experience Hyatt world-class hospitality through our new programs. This is our way of showing our dedication to creating a unique, comfortable and welcoming experience for all guests.”

The Enhanced Hyatt Gold Passport Guest Loyalty Program

Hyatt’s global loyalty program, was redesigned to be more generous and more rewarding. Members can now take part in a wider range of exclusive privileges, ranging from free night awards with no blackout dates to complimentary Internet access, suite upgrades and exclusive check-in areas for elite members.

“The Hyatt Gold Passport program has evolved from a rewards-focused program into a true service and recognition initiative so that we can better deliver Hyatt’s unique brand of authentic hospitality to our most valued guests,” said Jeff Zidell, vice president, Hyatt Gold Passport. “The program’s many new offerings emphasize our ‘do whatever it takes’ culture by demonstrating Hyatt’s loyalty to its guests, and not the other way around.”
