Now of course, the yacht transfer is sold out again and I missed out, whilst purchasing points for nothing. I am fuming against Hilton Honors. What is the point of points purchase for dynamic redemptions if you cannot get what you buy straight away? This is completely ridiculous. I purchased HH points before and never had this issue. I wonder when the points will show and if/when the yacht transfer will be back available as an experience to redeem.
Honestly, this has nothing to do with Hilton. Points are purchased through a 3rd party points.com and Hilton cannot do anything about the speed of the transfer or purchase. Almost all hotel loyalty chains use this service as well for their points transactions
