I am about to transfer about 60k AA to HH. I've read some nasty, horrible stuff about people's experiences with points.com. Copy everything, don't trust them, call after five days if yer transfer didn't go thru.

Just wondering if all y'all did that to protect yourself..

How was your experience transfering? How long did it take for the miles to post?

I went to the HH website and found that it's still available, but I'm quite certain I read something in 2006 on FT that the option was over after Dec 31st....
Transfers are still allowed. HH stopped offering airline awards after 12/31/06.

How long for AA miles to transfer to Hilton points?

I did a search, but didn't find anything recent.

I have an award stay in 12 days, and transferred some AA miles to points 2 nights ago. Will they make it in time for my award?

Being a procrastinator has its downside!

Thanks. Maybe I just panicked a day or two early and have nothing to worry about!

My last transfer earlier in May took five business days.

I took 4 days for me for the transaction to registered in HHonors member activities page. However, it took a lot longer (about 2 weeks) before it is part of the total HHonors points for dedemption page but the welcome page of HHonors did show the update total as soon as the transaction registered. Weird!!!

I requested the transfer Saturday night, the miles were deducted Monday and the points posted 2 days later on Wednesday evening (they weren't there when I got home from work at 5PM Eastern).

So pretty quick overall.

How long for an AA - Hilton conversion to post?

I see this is online now on AA.com. From those with experience, how long does it take for the points to show up in your Hilton account?

Thanks,

CF

AA to HH

I just converted 20,000 AA miles to "hopefully" 40,000 HH points on the AA site a few days ago. Today, it shows up on AA that the miles have been deducted for the HH "points". On Hilton site though, no points show. How long does it usually take to show online? I need to book a hotel award soon.

Thanks!

I did this but with CO-Amtrak-HH and it took about 5 business days for the final Amtrak to HH transfer to show up in my HH account.
