COVID-19: Hilton Honors

Article updated on 25/03/2020

Hilton Honors has taken several actions as part of COVID-19. In particular on:

• cancellations or modifications of reservations
• various aspects of the loyalty program

All existing reservations (even those designated as non-cancelable under “advance payment”) with arrival dates prior to June 30, 2020 may be changed or cancelled at no charge up to 24 hours prior to the scheduled arrival date.

All new reservations (even those designated as non-cancelable under “advance payment”) made within a period from today through June 30, 2020 for a future arrival date may be changed or cancelled at no charge up to 24 hours prior to the scheduled arrival date.

Conditions are available here.

Hilton Honors is pausing the expiration of points until December 31, 2020.

Also, members with an annual free weekend night certificate (obtained in the U.S. with the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire card, for example) will have the expiration date extended to August 31, 2021.

Hilton Honors has decided to grant an extension of status:

• Members whose 2019 status was due to lapse on March 31, 2020 – whether Diamond, Gold or Silver – will have that status extended to March 31, 2021
• Also, for the 2020 status, it will be extended until March 31, 2022. This means that the status you have today (Diamond, Gold or Silver) will be valid for the next 24 months.
