I love credit cards so much! v7.0 - 2025 (see first page for add'l details)

They should get the upgrades over those of us that buy the status with an af. I also get way better upgrades outside of the US and I don't see that changing. There's too many diamonds here to get a great upgrade, if one at all.

I have the card for the fnc, free breakfast and lounge access outside the US. The credit for breakfast here is meh but I've been trying to stay at resorts in the US so I can use that credit with it.

I would hope anyone with the card is using it more for those perks than room upgrades. If a room type is important to me I'll book it

A agree with this. I'll keep the card for the FNC, free breakfast outside of NA, the $200 airline credit and the 2 x $200 Aspire credits (that I won't be able to use much, though I did get to use it towards ds's resort fees at Resorts World in LV in September, which was nice).

I also agree with @reliev that diamond status for room upgrades has been almost completely nerfed. Though my last few stays I haven't received an upgrade. As long as I don't get a room over a nightclub (looking at you Straf Hotel -- Marriott -- in Milan) I'm okay with a base level room -- I'm rarely in my room when I travel so space isn't important to me -- just a quiet room with shower only.

Hyatt -- I have no hope of ever obtaining Globalist status, though it does sound amazing. I hope that they keep their award nights at the current level though -- it would really, really stink it they jacked the points a la Hilton.

Yes, they did announce in that press release that they aren’t going to change points, but they never mentioned status. With Hilton and Marriott having a similar status for 18k, I wouldn’t be surprised if they follow suit. I don’t want them to, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did—if that makes sense.
