Conclusion
Transferring ThankYou Points to Hilton is usually not a good idea, especially at the regular rate of 1,000:1,500. Hilton points are generally valued about 0.4-0.5 center a piece, while ThankYou Points are valued about 1.5 cents each. When strictly looking at valuation, even with this promotion, at 1,000:2,000, transferring points doesn’t make much sense.
But it all depends on what value you put on these currencies and what you currently need. If a few more thousand Hilton points will put you on your way to a great redemption for example, then it is definitely worth it.
