Please help me maximize e rewards

I've read a number of conflicting threads about this.

I have an old joint Hilton Honors account with my husband. (both names)

I understand you can redeem every ninety days. Is that for each of us then?

If I have more e rewards than he does, can I redeem them for his NW account? We have different last names. I already made my own redeption for this year.

All advice appreciated.

Marie

You should be able to redeem every 90 days with each E Rewards account. Even though you have a joint HHonors account, you also have two separate HHonors account numbers, and you should just transfer E Rewards from each account to the respective HHonors account.

I am not sure if you can redeem E Rewards from your account and put them in your husband's NW account. My guess would be no.

We have a Hilton "mutual" account and eRewards has only allowed 1 redemption per 90 days. Not 1 each, but 1 into the joint account.

Also, if you use different last names and have separate American Express Hilton credit cards, you can only gain points from the credit card account where the name matched the name on your Hilton account.

Morgan, thank you. You have confirmed what I thought. (I believe it used to be that both could redeem every 90 days)

Has anyone had any luck transfering to NW or AA in different names?
