Hmm. I got email #1 but will qualify for Diamond anyway. I wonder if they will make me eligable for the promotion in email # 2?

Just to show everyone what a class act Hilton is they have also addressed us that had already achieved Status for 2002. This is the email I just received.

And just to show how inconsistent HHonors is, I have already requalified for Diamond next year, and did NOT receive the offer David did!

****, it looks like I'll be living out of hotels the first quarter of 2002. Between the double stay credit points at hilton and Marriott, i can rent out my house for three months

I got it too.

Note also the double credit for January stays:

And, for members like you who continue to stay with us during
the remainder of 2001, we would like to offer an additional
expression of our appreciation. If your travel schedule makes it
possible for you to stay with us just once between November 1
and December 31, 2001, you will receive double stay credit
toward your 2003 HHonors VIP status for every HHonors stay
you have in the month of January 2002.

So you could pretty quickly knock out much or even all of your qualification for 2003.

Thanks, Hilton! Though I'd rather have some lucrative points deals.

Mike

I'm Diamond with HHonors, and no email yet. I wonder if it was targeted?

Hmmmm, I haven't seen anything as a Gold VIP (earned, 22 stays this year). I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and assume the email is on the way.

Not to burst another bubble but do we really need another double miles promotion? I would much rather see double points. If I want airline miles I go on a mileage run

We'd like to express our appreciation for the number of times this
year you've chosen to stay with us. Because you have already met
the Diamond VIP qualification requirement of 28 HHonors stays or
60 nights in 2001, you will receive double stay credit toward your
2003 HHonors VIP status for every HHonors stay you have between
January 1 and March 31, 2002.

Additionally, I'd like to give you advance notice of a special Hilton
HHonors promotion scheduled to begin on January 1: an opportunity
to earn double miles for Double Dip® stays at any HHonors hotel
worldwide, between January 1 and March 31, 2002. Registration will
be required to participate in this special offer -- however, in recognition
of your loyalty to the Hilton Family of Hotels, we have pre-registered
you automatically. Please look for more details of this valuable offer
in the weeks to come.

WOW!! Maybe the airlnes could learn something from this.

Smart strategy of SEGMENTING offers based on status of member.

THANKS For consideration
