I just checked Chicago for March 16-19/2003 & the only PS hotel is the HGI of Addison. Not the place 2B for St. Patrick's Day, but at least some hotel has '03 dates.
I then called the DT Downtown sales manager who told me that he had submitted '03 PS dates this September & he could not believe that neither HHonors Res. nor the Web had them yet. He said one week in Jan., Feb. & March 9-17. Well I suppose I could do Mar. 15 arrival for 3 nights, but I really want Mar. 16-19. Besides, this is at the end of a PVR vacation & AAdvantage awards PVR-ORD are sold out on 3-15.

mzredhead and doglover,
If you're finding these on the web somewhere, would you please post a link. I'm still not finding them anywhere.
mzredhead, read hhonorman's post way up above. He noted that you could search for 2003 PS, but you won't find any.

Point Stretcher dates for 2003
HHonors web site now lists Point Stretcher search option for dates through June 2003.

I searched numerous states/countries for Jan. 2003 with zero results.
Anyone else have better luck?

Thanks for posting this. Unfortunately, I don't think the hotels have been input into the system. I called the HHonors number yesterday to inquire when the PS dates will be out and was told in two to four weeks.

Nothing comes back for point stretcher awards even for December anywhere. I think the system is not working. Do you think the reservation people use the same system when I ask them about a date? or do they look at a crystal ball somewhere else?

How much longer do we need to wait for point stretcher dates in Asia Pacific????
Hilton, c'mon to the party, how much longer do we need to wait for point stretcher dates (or even full point award!!) booking dates at many properties in Asia and Australia??? It's already December now... i'm sure many of us are looking to book trips in Jan/Feb and use points if possible.... but still in Dec... we can't even book Point Stretchers if available or even an award generally for certain properties as they still haven't finalised their dates yet.....

Hilton Maldives has point stretcher running 1st - 20th of December, Singapore 14th- 22nd , Conrad Hong Kong 16th- 31st but as you say nothing for 2003 yet.
By the way does anybody know if Hilton still has a property in Kuala Lumpur ? It's no longer showing on the website.

Hilton is building a new hotel right next to the new Sentral Rail station in Kuala Lumpur. I think, however, that I heard it had a fire which set back the opening date.
For now the only option for a Hilton in KL area is the Petaling Jaya Hilton which is about a 20 minute cab ride from downtown or a quick MRT ride to KLCC.
