A great way to bypass this (when you're Diamond) is to select the 50% bonus in points over the miserable 100 airline miles. You'll definitely get more out of it!</font>
Well, Im only silver now. Besides, I like receiving the 1000 VS miles per stay. It's a nice way to supplement my VS account with 28k+ per year.

It might be the last thing that you want to hear, but you earn 0.5 WN credits for all HH stays, including Hampton Inn. In all honesty, it is pretty much the fastest way to earn a free domestic r/t ticket via HH.</font>
Nahhh. I just can't get into WN. Besides I only redeem for intl J/F flights.
