What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Caption By Hyatt Franchise Disclosure Document, the Distribution segment generates its earnings via ALG Vacations and Mr & Mrs Smith. ALG Vacations provides distribution and destination management services, while Mr & Mrs Smith offers a boutique and luxury global travel platform.
ALG Vacations contributes revenues from the sale of vacation packages, experiences, and charter flights. Additionally, Amstar provides destination services and excursions. Mr & Mrs Smith generates commission fees from bookings made directly through their platform and through third-party partners.
It is important to note that prior to the UVC Transaction, the Distribution segment also included earnings from a paid membership program that offered benefits exclusively at certain all-inclusive resorts, primarily in Latin America and the Caribbean. However, this is no longer the case.
