LatinPass to Hilton conversion question
Based on the thread in the "For Randy Peterson" area, there has been some changes at LatinPass regarding mileage redemption rules being relaxed. What I still don't quite understand is if I want to convert the 5000 mile bonus I received for joining LatinPass and have no additional miles in my LatinPass account, I can go ahead and transfer them to Hilton?
I posted this over there as well but not as many people go over to that thread....

My understanding is that they only changed the rule for the promotion. I don't think you'll be able to transfer the 5,000 to HHonors. However, I may be wrong - it's worth a try. As usual, LP is being vague. By the way, are you not doing the promotion?? I only ask because you were the kind person who initially started that lllooonnnggg thread!!

According to Guy Booth of Latin Pass, any 5000 Latin Pass miles can be converted to HHonors points. See remarks made by him on 02-07-2000 01:11 PM : http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum97/HTML/000095.html
I am unable to verify this, but my repeated requests to convert my 5000 Latin Pass miles were denied, and my miles expired on Dec 31 1999.
