The Final Week of the 2019 U.S. Travel Association’s Daily Getaways

The final week of the 2019 U.S. Travel Association’s Daily Getaways promotion begins Monday, June 3, 2019.

As in past years, the best is saved for last. Let’s take a look.

Daily Getaways Final Week Deals

The final week of this year’s Daily Getaways is short and sweet with two days of all hotel points.

Anyone who dabbles in the Miles and Points hobby knows how valuable Hyatt points are. And, as usual, Hyatt points are up for grabs.

Unlike previous years, however, Hyatt points don’t take the final day’s spot – what I used to call the Grand Finale.

No, this year that spot has been given to Hilton and its points offerings.

It can definitely be argued that Hilton points aren’t anywhere close to being as valuable as Hyatt points, but that doesn’t mean they’re not worth giving a look.

Daily Getaways Details

Monday

Four Hyatt point packages are up for grabs on Monday. These are extremely coveted, so getting one, let alone more than one, package is somewhat akin to winning the lottery. But, like I always say, you can’t win if you don’t play. So, more than any other item from this year’s Daily Getaways, this is the one I’ll be trying for.

• 24,000 World of Hyatt Points for $260 (120 sets of points available)
• 30,000 World of Hyatt Points for $330 (54 sets of points available)
• 40,000 World of Hyatt Points for $415 (30 sets of points available)
• 72,000 World of Hyatt Points for $775 (25 sets of points available)

No more than one set of points can be purchased per World of Hyatt membership number, unfortunately.

And a maximum of 4 sets of points is allowed per membership number across all Hyatt points offers.

Which means, go for the one set of points you want – trying to buy one set and then move on to try and get another different point amount set will be impossible.

For most, actually getting one set of points will be close to impossible.

If you’re one of the lucky ones, I’d encourage you to go out immediately and buy a lottery ticket, because, my friend, you’ve got luck on your side.

See you at the Daily Getaways site Monday at 1:00 p.m. Good luck.

Tuesday

Three Hilton Honors points packages will finish off this year’s Daily Getaways deals on Tuesday.

• 30,000 Hilton Honors Points for $150 (450 sets available)
• 100,000 Hilton Honors Points for $500 (275 sets available)
• 250,000 Hilton Honors Points for $1,250 (236 sets available)

Only 3 sets of the 30,000 Hilton points can be purchased and only 1 set of the 100,000 and 250,000 points can be purchased per Hilton Honors member.

So, up to 5 sets of points can be purchased by one Hilton Honors member total for this deal.

As with the Hyatt points, though, it’s doubtful you’ll be able to buy one set and then get to the others in time to buy another (or two) before they sell out.

I’d go for what you really want first and then see if anything else is still available.

Quick Thoughts

I’ve pretty much given my thoughts on these points packages under the individual deals.

Usually, buying points speculatively is a bad idea.

If you have an upcoming trip for which you need a specific number of points to get the award stay you want, buying points is a great way to do so.

But if you don’t have a specific travel goal on the horizon, then it’s probably best to pass.

And I would put that same line of thinking toward these points deals, too.

Except for the Hyatt points. Those I’d grab no matter since value can always be found when booking Hyatt award nights. And the Hyatt award chart is just so enticing whether you’re looking for an economical stay at a Hyatt Place or Hyatt House or an aspirational experience at a Grand or Park Hyatt.

All that said, head to the Daily Getaways site, check pricing on individual deals and plan out your final week purchase strategy.

Daily Getaways Ins and Outs

All Daily Getaways deals go on sale at 1:00 pm ET the day they are listed.

Actually, if there is any deal in which you’re interested, just to be safe I’d be ready to buy right at 1:00 pm when the deal opens.

As with anything in life, the details matter, so for deals you’re interested in, be sure to look at the fine print…it’s listed on each individual deal at the Daily Getaways site.

That said, scope out the deals that interest you for this week, set your cell phone alarm for 12:50 pm the day of the deal and get ready to buy!

That’s the end of 2019’s Daily Getaways deals. Here’s hoping you were able to grab a deal for yourself this year. If so, enjoy your travels.
