Every hotel stay comes with a decision:

Use points or pay cash?

Knowing when to use points, when to pay cash, and how to make the most of every stay can completely change the value you get from your travel.

This week, we’re going LIVE with JGOOT Expert Tom to break down the hotel booking playbook—and how to make smarter decisions every time you book a hotel.

With the recent Bilt/Hyatt devaluation, it’s a great time to revisit how we think about hotel points, redemptions, and bookings.

Inside this livestream, we’ll cover:

• The recent Bilt/Hyatt devaluation and what it means for hotel travelers

• When using points makes sense—and when paying cash is actually the better move

• How to decide whether a hotel redemption is worth your points

• What to do when hotel points simply aren’t a good option

• How to think about the true value of your hotel points

• Common hotel booking mistakes that can cost you points or money

• Tom’s tips for making smarter hotel booking decisions

• Your hotel points and booking questions—answered LIVE

The goal isn’t to use points just because you have them.

It’s knowing when your points are valuable—and when they’re better saved for the next trip.

Join Tom and the JGOOT community LIVE as we break down The Hotel Booking Playbook and show you how to make the right call with every stay.
