Found Another Point Stretcher
I actually got a $68 rate but I thought I'd just toy around to see if any were loaded and I found a point stretcher for Hilton Boca Raton for 01May04.
In reference to the earlier threads and Adam Burke's comments we are seeing some availability.

Hmm...how did you find the PS? I checked under each hotel and did not find PS listed under "HHonors" icon on left side. I alsso did a genral search under the PS dates for Florida and California and no hotels came back.
Must be a better way. Thanks

They changed the beta site, I believe, and it now does not show PS dates anymore.

Yes, it's strange, I could not get it to show anything other than "View All" yesterday and today it works again.

Just tried beta for California, Florida and Canada and got bupkiss. Doesn't say on the regular site anymore that PS will be available on or about March 1, but that doesn't mean the rewards are available yet either.

Just did a little more trolling on beta site and found where I could enter PS. Unfortunately, the HI I wanted in Vancouver, along with every other YVR property within 30 miles is only available on standard rewards. Or so they say.

Hmm, I think that finding PS in NYC anytime in the month of December may be a bit of a "stretch" since occupancy is at a premium. From past experience, if you can get a standard point redemption room, you had better take it now.

I can't seem to get any point stretchers anywhere in Europe. They took down the note about them being available March 1, but there is still nothing. Anyone have any luck with Europe in May 04?
I read the post re: Open Letter to Adam Burke and it looks like they should be up today, but nothing yet..
