Also, can I book through AA shopping portal and get 2pts per dollar PLUS 500 Hilton bonus, plus 12 per dollar paying with Surpass? I guess this is triple dipping.
I had the same situation about two months ago. It was even a res for a HI. I didn't want to have to rebook because the rate had gone up and availability was looking thin. Once I had the card, I just logged into my account and updated the card on the reservation which I had made originally with a Visa card. The 500 point bonus posted.

Can't help you on the other questions.
