A heroic effort at comprehensive review, if a bit verbose.
The "consolidated chart" sort'a says it all.

That is a great thread -- thanks for posting it! I have seen most of that information before, but not all in one place. Trying to search for that on the HHonors web site can be difficult, to say the least.

Just like the airlines, Hilton just wants to make it easy for you to cash in your rewards! :doh:

Thanks for this website. I hope to save a fair number of points by using the information posted here. I've never had a problem cashing in points on United or Hilton, but I'm an elite member of both programs so maybe that's why.
