What do you mean by that?

we can't use a DSU to get an suite-upgrade for an award night, but I think that if I use an award night with my Hyatt diamond, then I'd get some sort of upgrade (based on availability).

Having status alone can help at check-in. You just cannot confirm it before hand and use a DSU on award night.

Are you referring to mixing award nights with regular/C&P nights?

Well that too.
But I was talking about asking the rooms or rev manager at a hotel directly to process a DSU.  They usually won't, but they can.

So I applied for the Hyatt Cc 2 weeks ago but looks like I won't be getting the signup nights in time for my next week stay.
If there is anyone that would be interested in 'exchanging' nights (you give me yours now I'll give you mines in the next 15 months) please PM me.

You might as well as them to confirm you in a suite.

don't you receive 2 free nights when spending XXXX USD on the Chase card? The anniversary certs are only valid up to cat 4 and I would need a night at a hotel which is in a higher cat, thus anniversary certs would not work for me.

chase is transferable to Hyatt, so perhaps he is referring to a free anniversary night.
