SPECIAL OFFER: Until 14th August 2025, the sign-up bonus on the Hilton Honors Plus debit card is TRIPLED to 30,000 Hilton Honors points. You will also receive Gold Elite status in Hilton Honors for as long as you hold the card. Click here for our full card review and click here to apply.

I covered the two recent Iberia and British Airways Hilton promotions in recent days.  The best one is the Iberia Plus version (compare with the BA Hilton promo here) which gets you:

double Avios on your first stay

triple Avios on your second stay

quadruple Avios on your third and subsequent stays

Lufthansa and Hilton have launched a similar promotion.  This is more generous than the Avios offer unless you are spending substantial sums on your stay.  If you collect Miles & More miles this is well worth a look.

Full details and the registration page can be found here.  You need to:

register via this page

change your Hilton HHonors earning profile to ‘points and miles’ and

select ‘Miles & More’ as your airline partner

For your next two Hilton Group stays before 31st August you would receive:

1,500 bonus Miles & More miles on your first stay

2,000 bonus Miles & More miles on your second stay

You would ALSO receive double points on the ‘points’ bit of ‘points and miles’ if you register for the ‘Unlimited Bonus’ promotion as well – see here for details.

If you value Miles & More miles at 1p, this is an additional £15 to £20 rebate per stay on top of your base points and your base miles.  That is not a bad result, especially on a cheap stay.  The fact that you cannot buy Miles & More miles* means that opportunities to pick them up easily should be taken seriously.

(* whilst you can’t oficially buy Miles & More miles, there is a decent workaround.  Buy Starwood Preferred Guest points and convert those.  The price is not far off what you would expect to pay for Miles & More miles if they were sold directly.)

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (June 2025)

There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards.  Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.

There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 14th August 2025, the sign-up bonus on the Hilton Honors Plus debit card is TRIPLED to 30,000 Hilton Honors points. You will also receive Gold Elite status in Hilton Honors for as long as you hold the card. Click here for our full card review and click here to apply.

You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.
