1) does spg gold get matched to hilton diamond straight up ever?
2) can i match one of them to another program and get something and in turn get hilton diamond?
I am also wondering about question 1.
Really what i'd like is hyatt diamond, and all I have now is spg prefered, so I'm wondering what the easiest way to accomplish that would be:
1) Get an Amex Platinum = Spg Gold -> hilton diamond -> hyatt diamond ?
2) IHG CC = IHG Plat -> hilton diamond -> hyatt diamond ?
Is hyatt even currently offering a status match?
