World of Hyatt allows Globalist members to redeem their points for others who can take advantage of their elite perks, such as complimentary breakfast and potential room upgrades, even if the Globalist member is not staying with them.

Yes, you can use your World of Hyatt awards for someone else, but the method depends on the type of award. The most prestigious way is through the Guest of Honor benefit, which allows Globalist members (and those who earn it through Milestone Rewards) to gift an award stay to a friend or family member. When you book a Guest of Honor stay, the recipient doesn't just get the room; they also receive all the "Globalist-lite" perks, such as free breakfast, club access, and late checkout. For standard Point Redemptions, you can book a room in someone else's name by calling Hyatt customer service or, in some regions, through the app by adding them as an additional guest. Furthermore, World of Hyatt allows you to transfer points to any other member for free once every 30 days, provided both accounts have been active for at least 60 days. This makes it very easy to pool resources or simply gift a stay. It is important to remember that most awards have expiration dates, so always check the "My Awards" section of your account to ensure the gift is used before it vanishes.
