WuhooPoints Interview: Hilton Aspire

While many credit card experts focus on the premium travel credit cards as a base of point operations, others build from their loyalty programs, from airlines to hotels. In this next interview, I talk with Ray about his credit card strategy comprising of Hilton, JetBlue, and Amtrak credit cards.

Watch the whole interview below, or see the 3 key takeaways below.

Interview Highlights (Newsletter Exclusive)

• The Hilton Aspire Card has many benefits to recoup the $550 annual fee. Outside of the $400 Hilton Resort credit and Hilton Diamond status, the card also provides a $200 airline incidental credit and a CLEAR membership credit.

• Staying at Hilton Resorts maximizes card and status benefits. Because the card grants you Diamond status, at Hilton Resorts you can get free breakfast, access to the hotel lounge, a free upgrades, and more.

• Hilton Free Night Awards are super flexible. Unlike its hotel counterparts, Hilton has free night awards that can be used for any category hotel at any time. This flexibility makes it super lucrative to redeem for high-end hotels.
