Guide

Do Hilton points expire?

Yes. Hilton Honors points expire after 24 consecutive months without eligible activity — the rule was 12 months until Hilton doubled the window. Any stay, card spend or points purchase resets the clock on the whole balance. Points never expire on a date; only inactivity loses them.

Guide

Do IHG points expire?

Yes. IHG One Rewards points expire after 12 months with no account activity — the shortest window among the major hotel programs. Any earning or redemption resets it. IHG Elite members and IHG One Rewards Premier cardholders, who hold Platinum Elite, are exempt and keep their points regardless.

Guide

Do Delta miles expire?

No. Delta SkyMiles do not expire and there is no inactivity clock — Delta's own program rules state miles never expire. The catch is value rather than time: SkyMiles are priced dynamically against cash fares, so a balance held for years quietly buys less as fares and award prices rise.

What can my Virgin Points do?

Virgin Points book partner flights on fixed charts: Delta One between New York and London is 47,500 points one-way off-peak, Delta flights within the US start at 7,500, and ANA business from Los Angeles to Tokyo is 52,500. Amex, Chase, Bilt and Citi points transfer in at 1:1, and the tool sorts trips by what your balance reaches.

What are Hilton points worth?

A Hilton Honors point is typically worth about 0.4 cents after two consecutive devaluations, so 100,000 points come to roughly $400. Low-demand rooms land nearer 0.35 cents and aspirational resorts around 0.5 cents. The calculator converts any Hilton balance into dollars, pounds and euros at all three rates.

How to earn Delta miles

Delta SkyMiles members earn 5 miles per $1 on Delta fares, rising to 7, 8, 9 and 11 with Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond Medallion status; Basic Economy earns none. Partner-airline flights earn by distance and cabin, American Express points transfer in at 1:1 and Marriott points at 3:1, and dining, Uber and shopping add more.

Tool

What are IHG points worth?

An IHG One Rewards point is typically worth about 0.55 cents, between published valuations of 0.5 and 0.6 cents, so 100,000 points come to roughly $550. Budget brands and cheap dates land nearer 0.45 cents, and better hotels or the fourth night free around 0.65 cents. The calculator converts any IHG balance into dollars, pounds and euros.

Comparison

Marriott Bonvoy vs Hilton Honors

A Marriott Bonvoy point is worth more than a Hilton Honors point — about 0.73 cents against 0.4, per the published US valuations — so a Hilton balance has to be roughly twice the size to buy the same night. Both expire after 24 consecutive months of inactivity. Compare a specific night in cents per point, not balances.
