They won't count any stays prior to signing up for the MVP promo.

Thanks nicnac 16 I feared you were right; at this point, i might as well plod along with my own promo and remember to check FT before embarking on any major earning/status shifts!

Anyone see this promo recently?

http://www.hiltonhawaii.com/mahalo/

It says it expired on 12/23/2010, but Hilton is offering it to me for a stay in Hawaii in February. When I click the link, I really don't get much info.

Supposedly, I'd get an extra 10K points, double miles, and a bathrobe.

But I think I'll end up using the Team USA Advantage rate instead.

Could just be that I didn't pick the right search term, but I was surprised that I didn't find an active thread for this topic. If I just missed it, please mod alert this so it can be merged.

I plan on using a GLON next year. The rates are high enough that I think it makes sense to purchase points. I would need a few huge chunks of points to get to the GLON redemption rate, so I'm thinking of buying 40k points today since that's the max you can purchase each CY.

Are there any current promos for purchasing HHonors points?

I'm aware of the Discover America promo the last few years in May that provides a small number of severely discounted points packages. Other than that, are there any recurring promos that Hilton seems to do every year?

And this one I've done zero research on so far, but I'll ask anyway - Does anyone know of any current promos for airline miles that convert to HHonors points at a better rate than a direct HHonors purchase? (Didn't think of this before, but the ad I see on the side of this page from Aeroplan mentions this option)

Thanks in advance for your help!

no such promotion at the time being

Last year, HH had a great promotion, say x times and get a free room. I cannot find any current promotions like this. Am I missing them somewhere?

Link to Hilton HHonors promotions page; a number of them are mentioned in this forum.

Note that Hilton's own list is incomplete, or so it seems to me. For instance, here's a triple BA miles promo (http://www.hiltonhhonors.com/aviosba) that's good at all Hilton properties, which I don't see listed on the master promo page.

Ah, yes, our good old Hilton website! Ah, well, if not for stuff like that, FT might not be here. A good saerch and read of promo threads here is always in order.

Thanks for adding that one!

And of course there are others if you step up one level to http://www.hilton.com/en/hi/promotions/index.jhtml. There you will see the "More Points" link to sign up for the 1000 pts/night and 5000 pts/weekend stay promo.

however no great deals offered at this time. Pity. I am about to do multiple stays in USA at Hiltons. Last year there was a promo of staying 3 or 4 times for a free room but I guess there is no such promotion now. Pity. Other chains are offering this promotion now, so I will go with them.

100,000miler

Seems to be a shortage of promotions at major chains this year. The only decent one I see is the Getaway promotion at HH.

Any others which are directed to specific members and not all? Please share.

There is a promo for 2x points or 2x miles, and others found by a search on 'promo'.

two free children's tickets to brave for each weekend stay at a HGI.

There's a few promotions, but limited time. Need to stay on the ball. Sofitel had one that ended May 20th.

Radisson has the big night giveaway.

Then some localized properties have, like the Kuala Lumpur Le Meridien.

But I do think the best one right now is the Hilton one.
