After ending its enhanced loyalty partnership with American Airlines, Hyatt Hotels Corporation announced a long-term pact with Delta Air Lines that will connect Delta SkyMiles and World of Hyatt loyalty programs for elite customers.
“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, delivering one of the most requested loyalty benefits and rewarding members across flights and stays,” Hyatt said.
“The dual-earn benefit will offer eligible World of Hyatt elite members the opportunity to earn World of Hyatt 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,” the company added.
Hyatt and Delta said they will announce additional information about the partnership soon.
“Exceptional travel extends far beyond a hotel stay – it’s about creating memorable experiences throughout the full travel journey,” said Mark Hoplamazian, Hyatt chairman, president and CEO.
“That’s what will make our collaboration with Delta so exciting. We share a vision for delivering thoughtful, premium experiences that put our members first and create tremendous value wherever their travels take them,” he added.
Delta Air Lines Chief Executive Officer Ed Bastian shares that mindset. “At Delta, premium has never been about just a seat – it’s a standard of care that shows up throughout the journey,” he said. “Flying Delta creates experiences and opportunities that can'’ be found anywhere else. 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.”
