You earn 2% cash back, but when it comes to redeeming, you redeem at a 1% rate. It still results in a 2% return on your spend, but some of our redemptions, particularly flights in premium cabins, result in a much higher return than 2%. WORLD OF HYATT IN JAPAN 3.4 cents per point. For reference, this rate is in the higher range. Average is more like $600-$800, but even at a rate of $600, 30,000 points would be 2 cents per point. 2.
