Couple of zeros missing?
I just looked at the "Transfer" section of the HHonors program. Am I reading this right that when transferred IN to Hilton, 20,000 HA or VS miles get you 30,000 Hilton points, but when transferred OUT from Hilton, 30,000 points get you a measly 3,000 of several airlines' miles (4,500 in the case of Virgin)?

So 1:1.5 in and 10:1 out?

Ouch...

Generally, yes. There are some slight variations among some of the programs.

This is also why they are known as Hilton Pesos.
