Delta Air Lines and Hyatt Hotels announced a long-term strategic loyalty partnership on 9 September 2026. The collaboration links the Delta SkyMiles and World of Hyatt programs to provide shared rewards for frequent travelers.

Under the planned reciprocal arrangement, eligible members can earn rewards across both platforms on qualifying bookings. Delta SkyMiles Medallion members will earn miles for qualifying stays at participating Hyatt properties. In turn, World of Hyatt elite members will earn hotel points on qualifying Delta airfare purchases within eligible fare classes.

At Delta, premium has never been about just a seat – it's a standard of care that shows up throughout the journey.

The programs plan to launch initial benefits for elite members in the coming months. Both companies stated that full details regarding program eligibility, enrollment, and specific launch experiences will be revealed later in the year.
