Great. ^
If you need a generic 3-digit autoclub code to use for Hilton, use 430. It still works - I used it two weeks ago.

The only reason I do this is because (a) it's infuriating that Hilton won't save/store my real AAA number, (b) I don't have it memorized, and (c) when I travel I do actually bring the card and show it if asked. (I'm not promoting using 430 if you aren't a member of an autoclub...it's just a workaround for their stupid website.)
