Is buying hotel points to 'save' on hotel stays good value?
Feb 04, 2016, 02:57 PMI'm Hilton Diamond and have a stash of HHonors points so I no longer buy points but I used to!

Is buying hotel points to 'save' on hotel stays good value?
Feb 04, 2016, 01:08 PMIt might be worth adding that if you pay with points the 5th night is free. In the example above the nightly price becomes 64,000 HHonors points instead of 80,000. However, the "points plus cash" rate stays the same.

Anyone know of any way of transferring points between QF and EK .
Feb 04, 2016, 03:08 PMTo the best of my knowledge there is no way to transfer points between these two loyalty programs. You can purchase Skywards miles and/or Qantas points though it is rather costly and there is a limit of how many you can buy.You can also buy SPG points and transfer - 20,000 Starwood points co...
