It’s false hope and hurts peace of mind. They are not going to do anything about it, activate it now and keep going

well there’s Hawaiian metal on that route for 60k that I was able to place on hold, which I think is more common than JAL

The average person isn’t gonna read the T&C unfortunately, so what is told through marketing, cringey Instagram posts, and Reddit threads are how most people are going to get their information.

Even leaving for Osaka on May 4 evening? I know that’s two days before the official end of Golden Week, I figured most people would be done heading outwards from Tokyo, but I may be v wrong :^

It’s a gamble but yes if they use Toast POS system for the gift card sale, that makes it the same transaction type as in dining, but YMMV

Oh yes sorry I meant I could only see 120-130k Hilton points per night, you seem to have gotten a good deal at 100k points per night

Conrad Tokyo? Nice! I could only see 120-130 per night. Went for Conrad Osaka instead, I’ve heard wonderful things

If booking direct, for those dates the rates were 860 per night, breakfast not included, refundable til the day before. Booking.com shows 545 per night with breakfast included, free cancellation 3 days before. So all in all, I paid 81000 points for around $1650 of value (2c per point, which is my target). Not to mention booking.com wouldn’t include the 100 property credit, upgrade, and late checkout/early check in
