Gifting Hilton Honors Elite Status Just Got Easier

Hilton Honors has the option to gift elite status to another member of the loyalty program. But normally, in order to be able to gift status to someone, you need to have 60 or more nights at Hilton hotels in a calendar year.

Hilton is now expanding this benefit for elite members will be be able to gift status without needing to complete the annual night requirement.

The Offer

Hilton Honors is extending a one-time opportunity to its global Diamond and Lifetime Diamond members. Beginning next week until January 31, 2021, these elite members will be able to gift status for one year to a family member or friend.

Hilton Diamond members can gift Hilton Honors Gold to a person of their choosing and Lifetime Diamond members can gift Diamond status. More details about how to participate in this promotion will be provided next week.
