And I agree, this is an "I will leave Hilton" type of devaluation. We aren't talking about a 10% deval or something similar, this is massive, basically making the most interesting properties in the entire portfolio unavailable (I mean, really, it would take close to a million points to get a week at some of the properties...)
If you look at Bora Bora, 4 nights would now cost in excess of 600,000 points (King or twin lagoon view suite) whereas before the change you could get an AXON award (4 nights) for 145,000 points.
