How about some gathering, grinning and griping, over unbeatable happy hour prices? We have specials, just for our group. Paddy Barry's make me feel loved and honored, by naming, one of my favorite cocktails, after me - MerTini:) It will be one of the featured cocktails. http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/6/3/b/9/event_434665529.jpeg Why you come to our events? Because, we are not only saving you from going to DC to hangout. But also, we bring DC crowd to our events through our different meetups. I organize this with my other Meetups and you will have an opportunity to mingle with many insanely friendly people. • We will have The Whole private area by the Bar.

Things get harder. End of story. The mistake is thinking the opportunity disappears when the chart changes. It doesn’t. In this special session, JGOOT Travel Expert Tom Spears breaks down Hyatt’s updated award chart and what it actually means for the way you book. Because the truth is: while most travelers focus on what got worse… smarter travelers focus on how to keep winning anyway. It’s time for: **The Suite Life: What Hyatt’s New Award Chart Means for JGOOT Travelers** Tom will walk through what’s changed, where it impacts real bookings, and how to continue applying the JGOOT strategy to get strong value from your stays. Inside this session, you’ll learn: • What’s actually changed in Hyatt’s award chart (and what hasn’t) • Where the biggest impacts show up when you go to book • How to adjust your approach without overcomplicating things • Where strong value still exists… and how to find it • How to keep using the same core strategy, even as pricing shifts This isn’t about chasing the “old” chart. It’s not about finding a workaround or shortcut. Because the travelers who understand the system don’t lose when things change… they adapt and keep winning.
