Global Hotel Alliance, a.k.a. GHA, is a large alliance of hotel groups. Some of the most known affiliated brands include NH Hotels, Kempinski, Anantara and Pan Pacific.
They run a loyalty program called GHA Discovery with four (public) membership tiers: Silver, Gold, Platinum and Titanium. They used to work with Business Traveller to offer a complimentary status route. It was paused a while ago but seems to have returned lately.
You can check out the offer details here (Asia Pacific edition).
- Purchase any of the subscriptions to earn GHA Platinum status immediately
- The cheapest subscription costs $14.99 (click through to see the discounted price)
- The Platinum status is valid through 2025
If you are interested in the UK edition, it’s available here for £16.49. Note that you need to email Business Traveller afterwards to apply for the upgrade.
Platinum status usually requires staying 10 nights or two brands with GHA. It comes with benefits such as one-level room upgrade, welcome amenity and late check-out. If you have an upcoming GHA stay, it might be worth spending this small amount of money to get some benefits on your stay.
They also have a fast track offer, registration page here – stay twice by September 5 to earn GHA Titanium status. I think you must be a Platinum member to be able to register, but it probably doesn’t matter where you got it from.
Remember that there two more ways of getting instant Titanium upgrade:
- Emailing GHA’s customer service if you hold elite status with a competing hotel program
- Redeeming on Mastercard’s portal if you or someone you know have a World Elite card issued in Asia Pacific
