Hyatt Points can be transferred to over 25 airline partners. For most partners, every 2,500 Hyatt Points you transfer will give you 1,000 airline miles. You can also earn a bonus 5,000 miles for every 50,000-block of points you transfer in a single transaction.

Hyatt point transfer bonus
For every 50,000 Hyatt Points you transfer in a single transaction, Hyatt will throw in a bonus 5,000 airline miles. This means that a 50,000-point transfer would net you a total of 25,000 miles.

Are transferring Hyatt points worth it?
Hyatt points have an average value range of 1.8 to 2.2 cents per point meaning that the value of 2.5 Hyatt points is around 4.5 to 5.5 cents. Most airline miles are worth around 1.2 to 1.5 cents on average.
So at a 2.5-to-1 conversion ratio, you'll more than likely lose significant value unless you have a really, really good airline redemption lined up that can offer you over 4 cents in value.
Personally, with Hyatt points being harder to accumulate than points with other hotel rewards program, I would stick to redeeming them for high value toward free nights—though it could be worth it to transfer a few points to top off your account if you're close to a redemption.
