We just received the following message in our email from Hilton. They have come out with additional news for Hilton Honors members. Previously they had announced the pausing of points expiry until May 31 and that has now been extended to December 31. More importantly they are now offering elite tier extension to for members who were due to lose status by next week and also for those already have 2020 status. The extensions last until March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022 respectively. They have also extended the date to which you can change or cancel stays with no fee from April 30 to June 30.
Your Hilton Honors Status and Points
We consider it our privilege to have you as a Hilton Honors member and we want to show our appreciation by extending your benefits:
- 2019 Status Extension. All members whose 2019 status was scheduled to be downgraded on March 31, 2020—whether it’s Diamond, Gold or Silver—will automatically receive an extension through March 31, 2021.
- 2020 Status Extension. We are extending your 2020 member status through March 31, 2022. This means you will continue to enjoy all the Diamond, Gold or Silver benefits you have access to today for the next 24 months.
- Points Extension. We will pause the expiration of all Points scheduled to expire between now and December 31, 2020.
- Weekend Night Rewards Earned on Eligible Hilton Credit Cards. We have extended the expiration date of all unexpired Weekend Night Rewards as of March 11, 2020, and all new ones issued until August 30, 2020, through the end of next summer (August 31, 2021).
