Sometimes, the best things in life come from great friends. This is exactly why we're excited to hear that Hilton and Delta Air Lines are teaming up to offer an easy way to earn some quick Delta SkyMiles.
Starting now, Hilton Honors members can register for a special limited-time offer to earn 1,000 bonus Skymiles for booking a stay.
Here's how it works: Hilton Honors members can head to the promotion's official landing page to register by May 6. Then book a stay directly through Hilton's website or the Hilton Honors app. You must complete the stay by July 7.
Just like that, you'll earn 1,000 bonus miles as long as you have active Hilton Honors and Delta SkyMiles accounts.
Of course, there's always some extra fine print to read. For this promotion, only new Hilton stays qualify. So, don't think you can earn miles on stays you booked before registering.
Additionally, the names on the Hilton Honors and Delta SkyMiles accounts must match, and you need to make sure you're logged into your Hilton Honors account while making the booking.
If you do all of that, you'll get 1,000 SkyMiles deposited into your account within six to eight weeks of the completed stay. Just note there's a maximum of three stays per SkyMiles member on this offer. The bonus miles don't count toward Medallion Status or Million Miler Status, either.
Although 1,000 points isn't a ton, it's better than none, right?
Since you must complete the stay by July 7, those summer dates give you plenty of time to check out some of our favorite Hilton hotels. These include the best Hiltons in the world, our favorite Hilton all-inclusive properties or even a luxury-filled stay at one of the best Waldorf Astoria properties in the world.
It's an exciting time to be a Hilton Honors loyalist, considering that the company just announced it'll be growing its luxury arm by acquiring a majority stake in the parent company of NoMad Hotel. It plans to grow the brand to up to 100 properties in the coming years.
That news came hot on the heels of other big announcements: The cheeky, collegiate-themed brand Graduate Hotels will soon be integrated into Hilton Honors, as will the outdoorsy brand AutoCamp.

As a full-time digital nomad, I like to follow the sun: I spend part of the year enjoying summer in South America and the other part spending summer in Europe. This year, however, European summer will look slightly different, as Paris is hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics. Knowing I’d already be in Europe, there was no way I could miss an event of this caliber.
One of the great pleasures of traveling to foreign shores is to dive mouth-first into the local cuisine. Whether it’s the tastiest Thai pad kra pao or the best German bratwurst, sampling national and regional foods is a fantastic way to get a true taste of new cultures. Also, most of them are delicious!
Delta Air Lines announced plans to begin testing a New Distribution Capability (NDC) process with several of the carrier’s key partners later in 2024.
The totality of an eclipse is never long enough. My first total solar eclipse experience in 2017 made for the shortest two minutes of my life: the sun transforming into a blazing diamond ring, the beautiful delirium of darkness, that perfect circle in the sky. Before I knew it, the eclipse was over—and my friends and I were plotting how we could catch our next.
