Hilton Honors has launched new sale for stays at select cities in Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Wisconsin and Tennessee through March 4, 2019.
Hilton Honors members can save 20% off stays at the cities listed below if booked by this Friday (December 7).
Hilton Honors continues to offer very popular Gold status fast track offer that requires four stays within 90 day window.
Member that sign up for this offer now and complete it in 2019 will have the status through early 2021 per the T&Cs.
Hilton Honors has brought back instant Silver sign up promotion that should only be open for select American Express cardholders but at least previously was for everyone.
The offer is available for new and existing members between November 28 – February 28, 2019.
Hilton Honors launched buy points in early November promotion and is offering up to 100% bonus (seems to be 80% or 100% depending on your account) and has doubled the purchase limit at least for select members.
Members can buy up to 80,000 points every calendar year before any bonus, although the limit often doubled to select members (this time for me – allowing to purchase 320K points with the bonus).
Hilton has updated its Global Privacy Statement effective November 2, 2018, although the changes were posted to its website this week.
This update clarifies the organizational structure (data controllers) and (what is actually interesting) what information may be shared with providers and local authorities when WiFi service is used.
Hilton Honors switched its loyalty program backend on October 31, 2018 that took the entire system down for a day and delayed postings of completed stays for a week or so (read more here, here and here).
My most recent stays have all posted in less than 24 hours (some in 12) that was one of the goals of the update (speed them up). I have seen comments, however, from readers that are still experiencing some issues.
Hilton Honors has for years offered number of fast track offers for their corporate partners usually requiring four or six stays to reach Gold status within 90 days.
Now, Hilton Honors appears to have revamped them all and made them based on NIGHTS and instead of STAYS. Members can also qualify for Diamond status in addition to the Gold within the 90 day period. These offers come with instant Silver.
Hilton Honors launched the LXR Hotels & Resorts by converting ex-St Regis property in Dubai to Al Habtoor Palace (and later officially launching the brand itself).
It has been somewhat unclear what benefits Diamond guests can expect to receive at these LXR Hotels but Hilton has now clarified the issue on their app (thanks for a reader notifying us).

Seems that the closure is now postponed until the end of January (Hilton informed us) and the reservations have been reopened until January 31, 2019 (last date to check in for a night).
