You are correct!
RewardPlanner by Hilton HHonors and AwardPlanner are the same service, run by the staff at Randy's office.
We contract the service out to HHonors members, to allow them the choice to use HHonors points to join.

Great. Thanks for the quick response! While you are here, do you guys have any experience planning Galapagos trips? (If you don't want to answer in Milesbuzz, I asked a similar question in a Galapagos-specific Travelbuzz thread.)

Edited to add: I just got off the phone with someone from RewardPlanner/AwardPlanner. Apparently, they do not have a travel agency and would have to refer me to another group to book a cruise, likely at an addition fee. I may still join for the purpose of getting a somewhat complex award itinerary (involving a mix of LatinPass and other program awards) booked, but I guess you can disregard my question about booking cruises...
