Frequent Flyer Miles/Hotel Points Results for August Business Trip
My nearly 4 week trip resulted in a nice inflow of points and miles.
| Program | Amount Earned | Bonus Earned | Total | Description |
| Skymiles | 7142 | 7142 | 14284 | all airline flights on delta for trip |
| AAdvantage | 900 | 0 | 900 | reward for 2 budget car rentals |
| United | 1000 | 0 | 1000 | 2 stays at Hilton hotels @ 500 per stay |
| HHonors | 5764 | 5161 | 10925 | 2 stays at Hilton hotels |
| Priority Club | 11180 | 15617 | 26797 | 12 nights at Holiday Inn hotels |
Overall not a bad trip. I earned a little over 1/2 a domestic flight and enough hotel points for about 1 1/2 free nights. While I would take cash any day over miles/points I can't complain - these will come in handy next time we want to take a vacation.
