I mentioned yesterday that I upgraded my no fee Hilton Hhonors Amex card to the Surpass Amex, primarily because I wanted to get my Gold Elite status back. Well, less than 48 hours later and boom, talk about speed!

Couldn’t give a xxxx about your ‘Priceless Art of Not Caring’ link ๐
Scottrick says
There are a half-dozen attractions in Branson, MO, for several years now that look exactly like that “first of it’s kind” Cart Coaster.

That looks awesome, wow! I had no idea that existed, I love go carts! I also love roller coasters too!

Hey George, just a note of gratitude to you for the work you do in going through all those blogs and pointing out the highlights. Reminds me of the Utne Reader–is it still around?–that I loved for the same reason.
Have a great weekend!
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Muchas gracias.
That means a lot! Helps seeing my abandoning links and the revenue from it every morning at Panera. Amazon on track for worst month ever. Demoralizing but for some stupid insane reason I keep going. I need to call my therapist, so glad she takes Amex ๐

Yeah, last week I did the same thing with the AMEX Surpass and got an almost immediate upgrade to HHonors gold. Good trick to know for folks who suddenly find themselves heading to a Hilton. It’s kind of a no-brainer to “go gold” with this offer.
TravelBloggerBuzz says
Yeah, definitely I am a belieber now! I am still mad at myself for losing Gold…I swear I had seen somewhere it was good until 2016. And email says it now is good until 2017…Oh well, hoping for an awesome breakfast at Hilton Frankfurt airport and a suite!

Suite for HH Gold in FRA? Keep dreaming. Greetings from the DT in LIS. Just checked in, on a summer break rate of 118โฌ. Booked and got the rooftop exec room with terrace, and was told about breakfast and given the wifi code without for it because it’s included. All things HH diamonds whine about on FT about this property for not getting :p
Dave says
When you upgrade your AMEX HH to Surpass, I know you don’t get the bonus points, but do you have to pay the AF up front? Or after 1 year? If it’s 1 year, can you upgrade-downgrade-upgrade… ?
Dave says
I correct myself, upgrading does give you points! And no HP! But it sounds like this can only be done once.
P says
Wrong on all counts
TravelBloggerBuzz says
I believe the fee is prorated based on the no fee Amex anniversary date. And yes bonus points! As far as getting it again maybe P can elaborate.
