I paid 250$ to reinstate my 500k point expired miles which I didn’t even realize would happen. How long do I have now to use them and how can I extend that?

[yochai]

Is there any workaround for the minimum nights to generate standard availability? If I book more nights and cancel some will that help?
I’m actually looking to stay all 3 nights but have 2 certificates on my account and 1 on DW’s.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

What would be some of the best prestige properties to use 900K HH points for 10 x nights (inc the 2 x free nights)?   I thinking of island resort or somewhere with nice sunny weather .  Maybe Hawaii for example?

Anyone ever used a free night award and was added as second guest at Waldorf Astoria Cancun and had a problem?

[Jacob2000]

Can you gift a free night award so it can be put in my name?

all travel bloggers MO is to talk about the "value" you get per point. silly how many people fall into the value trap and will only look for high level cpp redemption instead of just doing what is truly the best option for them

What's the best strategy for booking 3 nights at 205k points a night at the Hilton Royal Senses in Crete, Greece? Going rate is ~ $ 565 per night...

what do you mean.? just pay cash/use hybrid points to book. it's a terrible value to use hh points on this. unless you are just sitting on a ton of hh points

I don't agree (and I'm not saying that because I booked this using points for August  )
You can typically source Hilton points for .4, so that's equivalent to $380 per night. And when you book 5 nights the 5th is free.

You can also by FNCs for less than that

how can you do FNC - the max is 150k / per night, no?
Also - how are you getting # 365 per night?

You need to look for nights that cost 90k. There are plenty throughout the summer. Then you can either apply a FNC or use points. 90k at .4 is $360

The FNC should work for anything that says "Standard Room Reward" on the rate, and not "Premium Room Reward".
