American Express today released incentives and benefit enhancements for those who have and swipe the Hilton Honors Aspire card.
Members earn bonus points for groceries, weekend free night award is now valid during weekdays too, resort credit can be used for US restaurant purchases, and all bonus points earned will count as a base towards elite and lifetime status qualifications.

Conclusion
These changes, although only temporary, are useful for Hilton Honors members and those carrying the Aspire card from American Express.
I am glad that it is now easier for members to use their free night rewards and resort credits when on-property benefits, due to the lack of travel, in the short term, are not useful.
