Quick Update on Planned Information Technology Update With Hilton October 2018
…but the latest information pertaining to the update has appeared on the official Internet web sites of Hilton at the time this article was written:
Planned Maintenance
We recently made some system updates and are now back online. We are working to process all recent stays and point transactions that took place during the system updates. If you had a stay in the last few days which is not currently reflected in your account, please check back on Thursday, November 1.

Summary
This article — which I wrote on Friday, October 26, 2018 — gives additional information pertaining to this technology update.
The purpose of the technology update is to move the Hilton Honors Internet web site to a new platform, which — amongst other benefits — promises that:
- Points from stays will post more quickly to membership accounts
- The speed of adding partners will significantly increase
- Parameters of the Hilton Honors program can be changed at an improved speed; and
- More creative bonuses to members will be offered
