Registration is now open for Hilton HHonors’ first quarter promotion — your choice (choose when you register and you cannot change later) of double points or double miles between January 7 and March 31.
There’s a really long list of non-participating hotels, almost all in the United States.
It’s not an especially exciting promotion, doesn’t make sense to move stays over to Hilton as a result of the bonus in most cases, but is certainly worth registering in case you have Hilton stays — better to earn the bonus for those stays than not to earn the bonus.
Gary – How have you set up your points/miles earnings on your HH account: points + points; points + variable miles; or points + fixed miles?
@Helena Smith – I vary my earning preference based on the price and length of the stay. Cheap, short stays = points + fixed miles. Expensive longer stays = points + points.
Boo – Sydney’s not in!
@Gary – thanks!
@Gary,
“doesn’t make sense to move stays over to Hilton as a result of the bonus in most cases”.
I have a feeling that Q1 promotions may be very unexciting.
this promo is so bad
Right now this is the best miles promo out… come on megamiles, I have hotels to book!!!
@Andrew Wales – I think Marriott’s MegaBonus is better
This is a decent promotion on Hilton’s part and helps in building up HHonors points. A Diamond selecting points and points as their earning style would earn 30 points per dollar spent. This is much better than the 1000 bonus points promo for Quarter 4.
