For travellers with Hyatt or Delta loyalty status, the practical change is a new dual-earn arrangement between the two programmes. The source says the specifics and exact timing are not yet known, with more detail promised "in the coming months." The same report notes that Hyatt and American Airlines will end their partnership at the end of the current membership year. Until the terms are published, no earning rates, eligibility rules or start date can be confirmed.
Our view
This is a loyalty development worth watching for travellers with either programme, but the practical planning details are still missing.
What the reporting says: Hyatt and Delta will partner, elites will enjoy dual earn, more detail is coming in the coming months, and Hyatt and American Airlines will end their partnership at the end of the current membership year.
