Hilton Continues Its Race to the Bottom

December 30, 2024 by Island Miler

Waldorf Astoria Grand Wailea

Hilton's Hilton Honors loyalty program is, in my opinion, the Delta SkyMiles of the hospitality world. After all, their points have atrocious value, and their elite benefits are fairly meaningless.
