Hyatt Travel Agent Rates

Hyatt Travel Agent Rates: A Deep Dive

Have you heard about the Travel Agent Rates offered by Hyatt, which let travel advisers save money on their own travels?

Are you wondering how much these prices can save travel advisors?

Not sure whether these prices come with any special benefits on top of what Hyatt members already get?

Discover everything about Hyatt's Travel Agent Rates—including savings, benefits, and how to make reservations—by reading on.

In this post, we examine Hyatt's travel agent rates in detail and demonstrate the savings a travel adviser may achieve by using them to make their own travel arrangements.

If you're not familiar, travel agents are the only ones who have access to discounted hotel rates known as "fam" prices or familiarization rates. This is so that agents can visit properties and provide their clients with firsthand recommendations.

Travel agents who register with Hyatt can book discounted rates at Hyatt hotels and resorts worldwide at pricing comparable to those of other major hotel chains (Marriott Fam-Tastic, Hilton, and IHG Travel Agent Programs).

Although Hyatt states that a qualified travel advisor rate might result in a 50% discount, we usually find discounts of between 10% and 30%.  Rates and discounts differ according on brand and are contingent upon availability.

Additional Perks for Travel Advisors

Travel experts can also take advantage of certain other benefits that Hyatt promotes in addition to the discounted accommodation cost.  But it would be misleading to portray these "benefits" as exclusive to travel advisers because many of them are just the same as free breakfast at Hyatt Place, which is something that any World of Hyatt member would receive.

• Save up to 50% off the daily rate for eligible stays.

• Free Wi-Fi in Hyatt hotels and resorts worldwide, and complimentary breakfast at participating Hyatt Place and Hyatt House hotels.

• Work with an on-site planner to host industry groups with the Entertainment Set—a customizable package with special offerings including VIP treatment and multi-tour booking benefits.

• Earn a 10% commission on your booking when you book with an eligible travel advisor rate (use chain code HY in the GDS).

• Discover the World of Hyatt loyalty program—book commissionable rates for your clients while they earn points toward free nights, airline miles, and more.

Are Hyatt Travel Agent Rates a good deal?

As previously said, not all hotels provide these rates, and the savings vary from a 50% reduction to none at all.

Here are a couple of examples we found with some random searches at popular Hyatt properties.

How to Book These Rates

In actuality, booking these rates is quite simple.  You only need to input the Travel Agent code, "4469," in the "Corporate or Group Code" area on the booking page; they don't require a password to access a private webpage.

When making a reservation using a Hyatt Corporate Discount Code or a Hyatt Leverage Code, you also use this field.

This is not something you should try to "hack," as you will be asked for credentials (either an IATAN, CLIA, or TIDS card) when you check in.
