Question Double MILES or double POINTS ???

Is it now double POINTS? We were talking about double MILES in the beginning? Does someone have insight information on this?

Oh, I believe I had tomatoes on my eyes

Double miles sounds much better to me than double points.

Not next week. Other sources have stated the 3Q promo starts July 7.

Yeah, but the other sources have said the details could change.

I, for one, would really like to see HH stop omitting the first few days of each quarter from these promos. Just makes them look like cheapskates when the point of this all is to reward membership (the Q2 promo disqualified Easter weekend, this one will exempt the 4th of July, etc.)

I would like to see the promos cover all days also, but I think that these promos are both to reward membership and to drive business. I think they feel (and such a feeling is justified in my mind) that they don't need any sort of promo to drive business over major holiday weekends.

No, the point of this is to make more money. Rooms filled with travelers over a major (U.S., anyway) holiday don't need incentives.
