e-rewards

[dave123]

Hi All,
Does anyone have any views on the redemption awards for e-rewards. I am up to the $75 level, but unsure what this will get me with regards to the hotel points for example, enough for a free room? I guess with regards to the airmiles it won't qualify for a first class round the world trip right, lol!! ?

As far as the hotel rewards, your $75 eRewards credit is probably not sufficient to get a free room, at least how I understand it.

Here is a quote from a WebFlyer review:

"..Free nights at Hilton (for the HHilton Honors program) range from 7,500 to 40,000 points, depending on the level of hotel..."

So, you could cash out once with a $25 eReward level for 1000 points, and then again at $50 eReward level for 3000 points = 4000 points, or the equivalent of half a room (keep in mind this review is from 2004, so things could have changed). If anyone has a different understanding of the HHilton program, please correct me.

Personally, I just get the AA Miles, as I have a frequent flyer credit card which complements it. Or the Blockbuster rentals ($25 eRewards = 6 rentals).
