Seems like it's XPF 20K ($219) for HH Gold/Dia members to upgrade to an OWB, so if you can find standard points rooms, it's a good deal. (37,500 x ~.49=$183+$219=$402 per night for an OWB)

Thanks for the calculation. Time to call to see if standard rooms are available for my dates...

By the way, you mention that each night is 37,500 points, but if I get the VIP discount, wouldn't it be 40k/night? (200/5?)

Why call? Just look online.
37,500 would be for 6+ nights.

The Hilton rep I just spoke to said they don't even offer standard redemptions at that hotel. Take from that what you will.

You're right. In fact, there are standard rates available for 7/27-8/05. Just another piece of evidence that shows CSRs don't know jack.

Wow, does it.

Lots of J availability. Saw it this AM and totally didn't think to check to MLE.

Thanks!

How is their hard product?

LX A333 should be awesome.  LH lags.  UA depends on PMCO or PMUA.  QR I have no idea.

Thanks.

So we have thus far:

  • LX A330-300
  • ...

I've heard all of LH's J product is angled flat (-1), and QR 777-300 is amazing.

Anyway to determine if a particular UA 777-200 will be the better PMCO?

Also, let me add LX 340-300 to the list.
