This guide will detail how to earn Lifetime Globalist, all of its benefits, and what counts and doesn’t count towards lifetime status.
How to Earn Lifetime Globalist Elite Status
To earn Hyatt Lifetime Globalist status, you need to earn 1,000,000 base points over the life of your World of Hyatt account.
Hyatt awards base points at a rate of 5 points per dollar spent on room rates, dining purchases, spa treatments, and other eligible expenses at participating hotels. Amounts spent on taxes and fees are excluded.
You would need to spend the equivalent of $200,000 with Hyatt to obtain lifetime Globalist status.
If you were to meet the minimum requirements of Hyatt Globalist of 100,000 Base Points each year, it would take you over 10 years! Or if you meet the minimum requirements of Hyatt Explorist of 50,000 Base Points, it would take you 20 years!
