Do Marriott points expire?
Yes. Marriott Bonvoy points expire after 24 consecutive months of account inactivity. Any qualifying activity — a stay, a card purchase that earns points, or a points transfer — resets the 24-month clock on the whole balance. There is no fixed expiry date, so an active account never loses points to time.
GuideDo 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.
GuideDo Southwest points expire?
No. Southwest Rapid Rewards points do not expire while your account stays open — Southwest removed points expiration in 2022. The one thing that loses them is closing the account: Southwest's terms say points in a closed account are terminated, so leave it open even if you stop flying.

The calculator converts any Southwest balance into dollars, pounds and euros at all three rates.
ComparisonMarriott 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.
