A.A. MILES TO HILTON POINTS?
« on: December 06, 2011, 04:41:24 PM »
if this is not right place to post move please

I saw this on another site


   " there is a current American Airlines card offering a 50k sign up bonus
    This 50k American Airlines sign up bonus also converts to Hilton at a 1:2 ratio
my buddy could have doubled the Hilton points and length of award stay with the same amount of credit card sign ups,"

anyone know how to convert AA to hilton points -- I looked on  A.A.advantage site could not find

Like u , I know about that one --- the blogger also said  "50k Virgin Atlantic sign up bonus converts to Hilton at a 1:2 ratio"

i am not into virgin atlantic , so maybe it is like Hawaiian air -- I am interested in  the A.A. convert

I'd wait to make sure the sight is legit. It seems outdated and I don't really trust putting my data into that websight until further info is known about it. I got the page directly from the hotlink from the same page you got all this information from. I just googled one of your quotes you listed. But again, even searching "hilton" on the known legit AA site I'm only finding transfer from Hilton to AA.

Check out the top post from 2008  which includes 2 recent links  that show it ending apparently. I thought it looked outdated

only "sucks" if u need them to fly--- if u got 8-900k and want a place to sleep ,it sure beats a park bench !!
maybe next time explain why it "sucks" (  don't u know of any other way to express urself?)-- so easy to find faults.....

we all know the value of airline miles vs. hotel points -- not everyone needs are the same

the world has 2 many:
Someone who enjoys giving flippant, sarcastic and/or rude answers to legitimate questions; also someone who enjoys being sarcastic and rude . See also: wise-ass, smart-aleck, etc.--if the shoe fits wear it!!--if does not --no need to continue

right now not ready to transfer , since i am in Europe and it is 1:00 AM do not have a lot of time right now . went to ur link and took me to hilton home page --- i do know u can transfer hilton points into airlines but that is not what i need --- THANKS for the heads up

i did get this from the blogger

As of Nov 24, 0geek is reporting that it still works.

See this Flyertalk thread:

http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/hilton-hhonors/1246957-aa-will-end-transfer-aa-miles-hh-points-4.htm

also imasosec-- in same post on dec 2 ,not sure if he did a transfer , it sounds like he did

sounds like it is still alive
