If you have a Hyatt credit card that gives you an annual Category 1-4 Free Night Award, the best way to maximize it is by booking the highest-category hotel available—because why wouldn’t you? In cities like New York, where many lower category Hyatts sit right at Category 4, you can get amazing value in a prime location.
Now let’s talk about the perfect use—airport hotels for early flights. Nothing beats rolling out of bed, hopping on a free airport shuttle, and being at security within minutes—especially when your flight is at 7 AM (like ours in the video)!
💡 Why it’s a smart play:
✔ Saves money—Airport hotels often cost $200+ per night, but your free night covers it.
✔ Saves stress—No worrying about traffic, Ubers, or waking up at 3 AM to drive.
✔ Maximizes value—Often in popular cities, the hotel is usually a Category 4, so you are getting the full value from your free night award.
For our 4:30 AM airport shuttle adventure, we stayed at a Hyatt Place near the airport for free—letting us sleep longer, avoid stress, and start our trip in the best way possible.
Got a Hyatt free night award? Use it wisely! Whether it’s a prime NYC stay or an airport hotel for an early flight, you’ll get the most value by booking right at that Category 4 limit.
Where’s your next Hyatt free night going? 🚀✈️
