Ok, hotel is set. I was a little perturbed to learn that Hilton has designated the Hawaiian Villiage as at their new "premier" level for awards, costing an extra 15,000 points for 3 free nights. Good thing I still have a 10,000 point discount to use! I guess its still better than the $249/night bounceback rate they were quoting...
Now to see if I can find a deal on an airfare that I can upgrade. The lowest I've found so far is $972. But I ain't done tryin'!
Will arrive 11/4 and depart very late on 11/7!!!! SEE YOU THERE!!!!!
