The best news I've seen all week. International point stretchers are back. The summer is looking so bright I've got to wear shades.

FWIW,

There are apparently more P/S that are not picked up by this link that I have provided.

I manually had come across P/S for the Hilton Antlers -- Colorado Springs for some time over this summer and it showed P/S, whereas no Hiltons are so listed, so bare in mind that either the above is still a work in progress, or not every hotel is yet listed.

Has anyone found PS for July-Dec yet?

The Conrad Singapore website shows some point stretcher availability from August through December.

Without painfully searching each HHonors hotel one-by-one looking for PointStretcher opportunities...has anyone heard anything more as to when HHonors is going to update the Master PointStretcher PDF lists on the web site to include July - December 2005?

It's July now, and the PointStretcher lists are still only through June.

These lists used to come out months in advance. Now it seems they are the lowest of priority, and the new PDF lists are always very late in being uploaded to the Member Services page. I wonder what sort of corporate philosophy or operational discipline has changed, to make such a difference between now and "then?"

Sure seems to me that someone at HHonors has dropped the ball on this and/or is no longer really interested in promoting PointStretchers as a HHonors benefit.

You are not alone in your puzzlement.

Apparently some participating hotels have their PointStretchers loaded for the last half of the year. But the only way to know would be to check each hotel individually, one-by-one. The PDF "Master Lists" have still not been updated. Which of course makes it painfully difficult to go "shopping" for PointStretchers.

The genius that put up post #19 has it figured out and shared it with all.

Just called the Diamond Desk. Asked the CSR about the status of the JUL-DEC PS charts. She looked, then put me on hold. When she came back, she said her supervisor would email me the JUL-DEC charts (I requested Hilton, ES, Conrad, & DoubleTree). No explanation about why the charts were not yet posted on the web site.

Still waiting for that email (call made ~ 1 hour ago).

Keep us posted. I would also like to see what is available.

I emailed [email protected] a week ago asking for the new lists and received a reply today telling me how to download the point stretcher lists from the Member Services area of the website. That's the same response I got when I called in.

I can't check right now because the HHonors website is just giving me error messages ("we are unable to process your request at this time..."), but maybe they finally got around to updating the list.
