  OT: Hilton Honors points expiring end of this month.

  Can I book a room for April onwards (after points expiry) without risk or does the room have to be booked to stay in pre expiry date?

  • TripRep says:

    The points should be deducted when you make the booking and will reactivate the expiry of your account.

  • Rob says:

    You can book now later, no problem.

    Note that ANY activity resets expiry, so simply moving 200 Amex Membership Rewards points will save you anyway.

    Gosh that could be generous if I’ve read that right:

    100 rooms for €100 on the 100 day
    99 rooms for €99 on the 99th day
    98 rooms for €98 on the 98th day….etc etc…

    Possible over optimistic reading into that.

      wishful thinking! 🙂

      But if you can go for it in the dates allowed [T&CS APPLY, LIMITED TIME OFFER OVER SPECIFIC DATES], could be a cheap holiday

  OT – If you book an airport hotel and parking package on a third party site (such as Travel Supermarket or Holiday Extras) do you get status benefits and points from the stay? Is it brand dependent?

  • Rob says:

    11 Feb11 February 15:42

    Very unlikely. You might get lucky but you certainly should not rely on it.

      Thanks for the response 🙂

  Is the Intercontinental Venice simply not happening?

  • Rob says:

    11 Feb11 February 17:09

    Yes, it is happening but things move slowly in Venice.

  Lufthansa uses passenger for not taking booked flight

  • Simon says:

    A freudian slip perhaps?
    They sued someone – will be interesting to see if they can make it stick.

    I am sure a good chunk of people book ex-EU with the last leg on a separate day?

    • marcw says:

      The problem with Lufthansa is that German Court ruled that no-show policy is unfair and they should remove it from their T&C’s. Now Lufthansa is happy if you do not fly any of the segments, but they specifically state that they will reprice the fare. That’s what happens with this customer… he didn’t fly the last leg, and his ticket got repriced. Lufthansa lost the first case, but it has decided to appeal. Interesting times ahead.

        I was happy to play the game and fly my last leg to OSL after getting BA F for £2k with GUV2! Even managed to get Qantas to check back BNE-SYD-SIN-LHR-OSL! 🙂
