Hyatt’s New Hotel Bonus, Get 500 Points per Night Hyatt offers an incentive to stay at new hotels. World of Hyatt members who stay at newly opened properties can get bonus points. The 500 points bonus is often available for a couple of months, once the property becomes available online. The selection of Hyatt hotels that have this bonus changes monthly. So it’s a good idea to keep an eye on this list. The bonus is not huge, but with everything being equal, you might want to select a Hyatt property that gets you an additional 500 points per night. Check out more details below. Offer Details Discover new places and reward your spirit of adventure. You can earn 500 Bonus Points for qualifying nights at new Hyatt hotels around the world. Here’s how: Earn 500 Bonus Points per night at new hotels during specified offer periods Paid stays and awards qualify for the bonus. Must checkout during that hotel’s offer period. There’s no need to register and you can earn on top of other offers Keep checking back for new additions Currently there are 29 new properties available. You can find the full list of eligible properties here. Expiration dates vary between June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2026. Each property has a specific promotion period window. Important Terms Offer valid for 500 Bonus Points for each qualifying night stayed by World of Hyatt members in good standing during a hotel’s offer period at participating hotels and resorts. Offer valid at participating hotels and resorts for stays with a checkout date during each hotel’s offer period. To be eligible for this offer you must be a World of Hyatt member in good standing at time of reservation and stay, stay at a participating hotel with a checkout date during that hotel’s offer period, provide your World of Hyatt membership number at time of check-in, and either pay an Eligible Rate or redeem a free night award.

Two or more consecutive nights at the same hotel will be deemed one stay. All points awarded under this offer are Bonus Points. Guru’s Wrap-up The World of Hyatt program is one of the best out there for good reason. You get a lot of value for your points, there are great properties in the US and around the world, and the World of Hyatt Card is a keeper. The World of Hyatt Business Card was added more recently, and both cards now have elevated welcome bonuses. Elite status is also quite valuable, they have fun features such as Brand Explorer and we often see different promotions. This 500 points bonus is yet another opportunity to earn extra points for stays at new Hyatt hotels. It is not a bonus that will make you book a property out of nowhere, but if one of these new properties matches your travel plans, then 500 extra points are always a good deal. One thing to keep in mind is that new properties might not always be the best choice. Hopefully can check out previous reviews or trip reports if they are available, but sometimes they haven’t tested and worked out everything on the property. Our site doesn't have credit card affiliate links so we will always give readers the best possible offers!

The card also falls under the Chase 5/24 rule. You can use this eligibility tool to make sense of all these rules. About Marriott Bonvoy The Marriott Bonvoy program is one of the largest hotel rewards programs in the world, counting 30 brands spread out around the world. Brands very from budget hotels to luxurious properties in exotic locations. Marriott Bonvoy points are worth about 0.6 cents each. You earn 10 base Bonvoy rewards points per dollar spent at Marriott properties. So if you spend $100, you’ll earn 1,000 points. But, some budget brands have lower base earning rates. Bonvoy elite status holders earn additional points: Silver members earn 10% more. Gold members earn 25% more. Platinum members earn 50% more. Titanium and Ambassador members earn 75% more. You also get extra points for holding a Marriott Bonvoy credit card. Marriott is a transfer partner for Chase Ultimate Rewards and American Express Membership Rewards, giving you more options to accrue points. When it comes to using points, Marriott now uses dynamic pricing, with award rates varying between 7,500 and 100,000 points per night. A few luxurious properties can go much higher than that. Credit cards will also earn you free nights, which you can top up with up to 25,000 points. Guru’s Wrap-up This is a good offer for those who are eligible to apply and get the welcome bonus. You can get up to 175,000 points if you maximize the Free Night award. And now it’s even easier to use these Free Nights at more properties since you can add 25,000 points to each certificate and book hotels costing up to 75,000 points per night. However, it’s worth noting that we have seen offers for 5 Free Nights in the past, which could get you a value of up to 250,000 points if maximized. Points are more versatile that Free Nights, as you can book low end properties, or properties that cost more than 75,000 points per night. Also Free Night Certificates do not qualify for Marriott’s “5th night free” (that’s for point redemptions only). Marriott Bonvoy Boundless comes with a $95 fee, which makes it well worth it the first year. The card also gives you 15 Elite Night Credits toward next level of Elite Status each calendar year, Gold Elite Status when you spend $35,000 per calendar year, and one Elite Night Credit for every $5,000 spent.

TSA Launches Remote Security Screening Program On June 1, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) launched its latest initiative, a remote screening option for passengers flying out of Boston Logan International Airport. In partnership with the Massachusetts Port Authority, TSA has introduced this pilot program with an inaugural remote terminal in Framingham, Massachusetts. Passengers flying out of Boston Logan on JetBlue or Delta flights between 5:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. are currently eligible for this new experience. Instead of dealing with traffic at the airport, congestion at the checkpoint, and limited parking, these passengers can instead park at Framingham, check in, go through security, and take a bus directly to the secure side of their terminal. Tickets for the Framingham remote screening experience are on sale at massport.com now for $9, and children under 18 board the secure bus for free when traveling with a ticketed adult. Parking at Framingham is available for only $7 a day. TSA plans to roll out this pilot program at more remote passenger screening options nationwide. Other current remote screening locations are located at Los Angeles, Atlanta, and JFK International Airports. Visit TSA’s website for more information on TSA’s remote security screening program.
