On a somewhat related note, while not this acquisition specifically, I am trying to find out/confirm if WOH member benefits apply to AMResorts now that they are a part of the Hyatt family, specifically the free Wifi. I don’t see anything listed in the terms and conditions mentioning any limitations with AM Resorts. I am aware of the different benefits with the MGM partnership (which is just that, a partnership) as it relates to Resort Fees being applied or waived, as well as the SLHs group. But since Hyatt flat out bought Apple Leisure Group and all the AMR properties are some of their different brands (counting as brand badges), does the free wifi benefit apply? And as a Globalist, where you would get free premium vs.paying, would that benefit apply if just basic wifi is offered with a charge? Thanks.
