Hilton has announced a summer promotion where you can earn 2,500 bonus Lufthansa Miles and More miles for eligible stays. The promotion runs through October 31, 2018, and if you have multiple stays planned this summer, you are in luck, since there is no cap on the number of bonus miles you can pick up with this promotion.
Key Terms
- You need to register to earn 2,500 bonus Lufthansa miles
- Promotion is valid for stays through October 31, 2018
- Under the Preferences section in your Hilton account, add your Miles and More number as a Travel Partner and as your Preferred Partner select Lufthansa
- Earn 2,500 bonus Miles and More miles for eligible stays
- There is no cap on the number of bonus miles you can earn
- Allow up to 6 weeks for the bonus miles to post to your account
- Promotion excludes hotels based in Mainland China
Double Dip This Summer
This summer, you can also earn double points at Hilton properties for stays through September 9, 2018. If your stays fall in both promotion windows, you will be able to double dip and earn both double Hilton Points and bonus Lufthansa Miles and More.
Our Take
This is a great promotion if you have some stays planned during both promotion’s period, especially if you consider that earlier in the year Hilton killed off the option to regularly double dip on points and miles. With no earning caps set on both promotions, there is a potential to rack up a healthy number of points and miles this summer.

LH points don’t excite me because I can’t keep them active long enough to accumulate enough to do anything with. I’d prefer another option so ill just wait until I have a stay scheduled for business.
Double dipping fun for business travel!
They did it for Ba avios roughly one year ago.
Hopefully similar promotions will be launched with other airlines in the future 🙂
Double dip, yea!
Sounds great!
Double dip opportunities are the best…. now where can we find a triple dip
@rich-use one of the HH credit cards.
Just registered.
Interesting promo if you already collect Lufthansa miles. I’m not sure that it would be worthwhile if you don’t. I’m not sure there is any way to exchange orphan Lufthansa points for any other points. When I once had some completely useless Frontier points (useless to me) I exchanged them for some IHG points through points.com. Horrible exchange rate, but I actually used the IHG points so it worked for me. If I could do that with the Lufthansa points, I’d certainly sign up.
Love to be able to double dip!
Interested in data points about award stays too..
Very nice promo! Yes!!
Reserving a hilton now.
I currently have 12 stays planned during the promotion, so 30,000 miles for something I was going to do already plus mucho HH points. What’s not to like?
There’s also a 60K card offer for the LUfthansa credit card (20K after 1st use +40K more with $5K spending), so this could get pretty lucrative in a hurry.
30K miles is a good haul for stays you already had planned! Nice work.
great promo!
No earning caps, thats a good deal. Great promo.
I just never earn M&M (points).
Very good promotion indeed!
Nice offer for double dip.
Hilton is pretty good with the double dip promos!
Good tip on the United mile redemptions. Using them in Europe is obscenely expensive.
Still digging around for data points about whether award stays qualify. Often they do with Hilton Honors…
This is a great promo I will definitely take advantage of.
Excellent offer, being gold or above you will earn a decent amount of Hilton points plus Lufthansa MM points, what’s not to like.
This offer is win, win for the customer. Firstly you earn HH points for the stay then a stack of Lufty points that I find fairly hard to save.
I don’t collect Lufthansa miles but this is a pretty good promo.
Bonus bonanza that will work well for some. Enjoy those who can benefit!
I registered, but if I don’t normally use Lufthansa miles, what can I do with the 2,500 miles in that account?
You can do a whole lot of nothing with 2,500 miles. You’ll need more than that to do something useful with the miles – do a little research on the program to see if there is any value in it for yourself or simply don’t bother with the promotion. The more you know, the better well equipped you’ll be on deciding what is worth and what is not worth your time.
I do not collect LH miles because of their fuel surcharges on award tickets to Europe.
Use them to book domestic tickets in the US on United.
This is a great Hint, as I’m having several bookings after the end of the current Promotion!
Thank you!
Finally, something to make our German friends happy!
Yep! Thats something to make me happy 😀 – more of these please 😉
What are LH miles good for?
Is there any sweetspot for LH miles?
I’d check out what Drew put together: http://travelisfree.com/2015/05/02/best-use-of-lufthansa-miles-2/
Wow, very nice promo! And on the top of Hilton points! I’m going to switch for Hilton for 2 or3 stays this year/
The one good thing about this is that there are no earnings cap.
good promo but I miss the old points & miles option
Nice going, Hilton. So glad to see a double dip opportunity!
Nice, especially if you are already working with an LH balance. Unfortunately, not much benefit for me personally. Hoping for some other good HH promos this fall.
Same here; fingers crossed for a great Q4 promo.
Same with me! I don’t have any LH miles right now so getting 2,500 won’t make too much of a difference unfortunately.
No earning caps. On top of normal Hilton points. I mean, all things considered, this is a damn good promo for Hilton with some value to be had…especially if you know you can use those miles.
No earning caps. I like that.
This is in addition to the Hilton points you get?
Yes!
SCORE!
thanks for the response. I like to double dip
