Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Delta Air Lines announced a long-term loyalty partnership on September 9 that will let elite members earn World of Hyatt points on qualifying Delta airfare and Delta SkyMiles on qualifying Hyatt stays. The tie-up pairs routes such as Los Angeles-to-Hong Kong with Grand Hyatt Hong Kong and Delta's new Austin-to-Paris service with Park Hyatt Paris-Vendôme. In the second quarter of 2026, Hyatt's comparable system-wide RevPAR rose 5.9% year over year and gross fees climbed 7.8% to $324 million, with base management fees up 10.2% and franchise fees up 8.1%. The development pipeline reached roughly 154,000 rooms, up 10% from a year earlier, and the company opened 3,585 rooms in the quarter, while returning $175 million to shareholders in the first half and retaining about $1.5 billion in repurchase authorization. Still, net Package RevPAR at Hyatt's all-inclusive resorts fell 1.2%, Middle East conflict shaved roughly 110 basis points off quarterly RevPAR growth, and Hurricane Melissa forced Jamaica closures that management expects to cut full-year Adjusted EBITDA by about $25 million versus 2025.
