Time for "Status for a Day" reward to post to AAdvantage account from Hyatt
I am so used to instant transfers these days, I had completely missed anywhere it saying it could take any longer amount of time than instantly for a Hyatt redemption for American "status for a day" to show up in my AAdvantage account. I'm traveling on AA in two days, and may have all sorts of extra luggage with me, thought this would be a good use of the points, and just kind of figured I could buy the award and use it immediately. Turns out, according to AA, it can take up to 72 hours, and Hyatt is saying it can take up to 7 business days. But, these are "up to" figures, so I'm hoping folks have seen these appear much faster than what they're saying.
Does anyone have any data points here? Anyone have any idea how long it usually takes for a "status for a day" award to show up in a linked AA account from Hyatt?
