Update on American and Hyatt relationship

American Airlines and Hyatt have worked together to bring added value and choice to members of both our loyalty programs. After careful consideration, we have mutually decided to not continue our enhanced relationship. Throughout the transition, we are committed to preserving the benefits members can earn through the current earning year in each program (including providing the standard time to select an award after it has been earned).

For the remainder of each program's current earning year, AAdvantage® and World of Hyatt members will see no interruption in earning, selecting and redeeming their eligible benefits. AAdvantage® members who have linked their AAdvantage® and World of Hyatt accounts by 11:59:59 p.m. CT on Nov. 15 can continue earning World of Hyatt awards through Loyalty Point Rewards through Feb. 28, 2027. World of Hyatt members who have linked their accounts by Nov. 15 can continue earning AAdvantage® awards through Milestone Rewards through Dec. 31, 2026.

AAdvantage® members can continue choosing to earn 500 AAdvantage® miles in lieu of World of Hyatt points on eligible Hyatt stays by providing their AAdvantage® number at check-in even after the broader relationship concludes.

We are pleased with the value this relationship has delivered to our members and will continue to share updates throughout the transition to remain focused on creating rewarding experiences for our customers.
