Hyatt and Delta Air Lines Announce Long-Term Loyalty Collaboration

Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Delta Air Lines have announced a new, long-term strategic loyalty collaboration that brings together two premium travel brands. The partnership aims to create a connected, personalized and rewarding experience for World of Hyatt and Delta SkyMiles members.

When the collaboration launches, eligible elite members of both programs will be able to earn both World of Hyatt points and Delta miles on qualifying travel. The dual-earn benefit will offer eligible World of Hyatt elite members the opportunity to earn points on qualifying Delta airfare purchases within qualifying fare classes. Delta SkyMiles Medallion members will also be eligible to earn miles for qualifying stays at participating Hyatt properties.

Initial benefits will focus on elite members, with additional eligibility and benefit details to follow.

What the CEOs Are Saying

"Exceptional travel extends far beyond a hotel stay. It's about creating memorable experiences throughout the full travel journey," said Mark Hoplamazian, Chairman, President and CEO of Hyatt. "We share a vision for delivering thoughtful, premium experiences that put our members first and create tremendous value wherever their travels take them. By bringing together two brands with a shared commitment to care and exceptional hospitality, we will make it easier for our members to enjoy a connected and rewarding experience, from takeoff to check out."

"At Delta, premium has never been about just a seat. It's a standard of care that shows up throughout the journey," said Ed Bastian, Chief Executive Officer of Delta Air Lines. "Hyatt shares that same premium approach to everything from travel and dining to entertainment and accommodations, and it's what makes them such a natural fit."

The program will also offer exclusive benefits, extraordinary experiences and more, many of which will be unveiled later this year.
