Ready to transfer? Checklist
- Create the Delta SkyMiles account first, in exactly the same name as your Hilton Honors account. Brand-new accounts are more likely to be held for review, so open it days ahead if you can.
- Find the award before you move anything. Search Delta SkyMiles's own site (or an award-search tool) and confirm the seat or room and the exact points needed, taxes included. Award space isn't the same as cash space.
- Move the exact amount in one go. Don't do a small "test" transfer: people report that test transfers trigger fraud holds. Expected time for this step: Up to a week or more.
- If it's slow, call. Some airlines can hold an award while points arrive. If a transfer is stuck, call the program; holds of several days happen, and points can't be moved back.
- Hotel points to miles are slow and lossy. Use them only to top up a specific award.
