Hilton is one of the largest hotel groups in the world, and Hilton Honors™ Diamond status is the second highest tier status in the program (it used to be top tier, but we recently saw the introduction of the new Diamond Reserve status). What makes Diamond status unique is how easy it is to earn with credit cards, in some cases even just by holding onto a card.
In this post, I’d like to take a closer look at the benefits of Hilton Diamond elite status, including the easiest ways to earn it.
The Hilton Aspire Card offers Diamond status for as long as you have the card, in addition to a slew of other amazing benefits that more than justify the annual fee. These benefits include an annual free night certificate, up to $400 in annual Hilton resort credits (get up to $200 in statement credits semi-annually for eligible purchases made directly with participating Hilton Resorts), up to $200 in annual flight credits (get up to $50 in statement credits each quarter, for a total of up to $200 back each year, on flight purchases made directly with an airline or through AmexTravel.com), up to $209 in annual CLEAR® Plus credits, and more. The Hilton Aspire carries a $550 annual fee (Rates & Fees).
