Mostly I'll probably be either booking stays via Chase to Hyatt properties or transferring the points to Hyatt to book depending on which has the better value. Most of the locations in Colorado I looked at for the college visit were 8k points on Hyatt which is definitely lower than other chains I've used in our trips recently. Not sure how that translates to Chase yet (Haven't checked)

Once I come out from the freeze of my wife holding the Sapphire from our Hawaii trip (we got the cards in May of 2016), I'm getting her the Sapphire Reserved.

If you’re paying cash, always book on the Hyatt website. You’ll occasionally have issues with points and status booking through Chase. -- nm - spamlet Feb 3, 10:40 3
- I also meant to ask. Do you know how things work if you're renting a car with Chase points related to how the rental car company does their - oblique Feb 3, 10:46 1
  - Usually yes because it looks like a cash rental to them. I think Chase uses Orbitz so they'll just see it as that. - spamlet Feb 3, 10:55
- Good to know. I usually only use the Chase portal if I'm cashing in points. -- nm - oblique Feb 3, 10:42
