Hyatt's decision to sever ties with four airline programs on March 15 is a bit of a head-scratcher.

The four programs: Aeroplan, Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan, Frontier Airlines Early Returns, and US Airways Dividend Miles. Among North America programs, these are not the largest. And after the change, Hyatt will still have relationships with 31 airline programs, including those of American, Delta, Southwest, and United.

But the four affected programs do enjoy significant support, and their disappearance from Hyatt's partner roster will be a setback for many North American travelers.
