  I’m not sure this is just limited to top resorts.
  For instance, Hilton near Tewkesbury is up from 30K to 40K.

  • John says:

    Yup, happened in January, many UK properties up from 15k to 20k and 20 to 30

      Yes, there was a devaluation of many of, but not all of the UK properties that I was searching in January.

    Agree. Other resorts in Seychelles seem to have gone up too. Labriz was not 90k and Northolme 95k if I remember correctly.

      3-4 years ago, Labriz was 80k and Northolme 95k.

  Worth also mentioning that Hilton are currently offering a 100% bonus on points that are purchased.

    Was meant to have ended on 11th.

  Not really a surprise that stuff is getting more expensive when inflation is going to be close to double digits soon

• Matthew says:

  Yeah lots have gone up. Stansted airport Hampton used to be 20,000 points cap now it’s 30,000. 50% increase overnight, thank you Hilton.

  My flight to Philadelphia is still showing departure ex T5, but I guess I’ll get notification from BA shortly. Only annoyance, if it is now T3, is moving the car park booking.

  • qrfan says:

    Much bigger annoyance for me would be the lack of decent lounges vs the epic T3 selection. Quite annoyed as LHR – JFK via AA is the most common work route.

  Hilton Dalaman has gone up from 70k to 80k this year I noticed.

  • can says:

    12 Mar12 March 10:23

    That happened before the devaluation.. I thought it was 70k last year because no european visited Turkey due to restrictions and red list..

    • Peter K says:

      12 Mar12 March 11:28

      It’s been 70k at least since 2019. It was under 70k for a lot of last year due to low demand. Up to 80k this year.

  • Peter says:

    I paid 49k per night in November 2020, when the resort was dead. Even got an upgrade to corner suite as Gold. It’s much better than the new Hilton Cancun.

  Not going to lie, I’m glad I previously locked in five nights at WA Amsterdam for April 2022 and five nights at WA Beverley Hills for August 2022, at the old price of 95k points a night. The hotels are retailing for 1000 euros and 1000 USD plus a night respectively.

  • Rob says:

    I locked in a big Junior Suite (now upgraded to a full suite) at the Amstel for €495 for early April by booking it back in January 🙂

      Nice work! It was definitely best to book some time ago, before the economic recovery and post covid rebound in europe.

  Rob do you see anyway the loyalty schemes can square the US Credit Card points/income with rewarding non US credit card holders who actually stay at hotels?

  • Rob says:

    12 Mar12 March 16:39

    BA has done it, by doubling taxes and charges on flights from the US. It’s not a luxury the hotel schemes have. Your only positive is that, of course, most Americans never actually leave the country so it’s arguable what dilution you’d be feeling if you went to, say, Tokyo.
