Hyatt Gold Passport introduced a new benefit in April 2012 allowing Gold Passport members to earn points for money spent at Hyatt operated restaurants and spa even when not a registered guest staying at the hotel.
A registered guest of the hotel can generally post all restaurant and spa charges directly to the room folio to earn points. The new feature here allows a Hyatt Gold Passport member not staying at the hotel the opportunity to earn points for restaurant and spa spend.
No, a valid photo ID is required. If member does not know account number, Hyatt Associates at participating outlets hawaii travel vacation can look up the Hyatt Gold Passport account number with name and email address or mailing address.
If member is a Hyatt Gold Passport (HGP) member and visit participating restaurants or spas, member will provide HGP account number to the Hyatt Associate at the outlet at time of payment to process the earned points (5 HGP points per $1USD) hawaii travel vacation on eligible charges.
Eligible changes vary on a hotel-by-hotel basis, but generally include spa and salon services, spa and salon retail items, and food and beverage expenditures (except at outlets not operated by the hotel).

The number of participating Hyatt hotels in the program has grown rapidly in the past six months. My initial survey April 4, 2012 showed low participation of hotels in the program with about 36 hotels listed worldwide.
Today there are 94 hotels in the USA, 4 hotels in Canada and 12 other international hotels participating in the restaurant dining hawaii travel vacation benefit to earn points for spend as a non-guest of the hotel. This is about 75% of the full-service Hyatt Hotels in North America, but still only about 10% of international Hyatt properties.
