While doing some research for another post, I came across a promotion that Hilton is currently running which offers meeting planners the choice of either 2x Event Planner points or the ability to make the meeting carbon neutral via its Plan It Forward promotion.

Hilton Plan It Forward

The Deal

  • Event planners can earn 2x Event Planner points or make your meetings carbon neutral at Hilton properties with their Plan It Forward promotion.
  • Direct link to offer.

This offer is for new business only and may not be combined with other offers. See hotel contract for additional terms and conditions.
  • Carbon Neutral Meetings: Participating hotels will procure, at no cost to the group customer, the necessary carbon credits to offset the estimated emissions from the meeting or event, based on calculations from Hilton’s LightStay platform.

Quick Thoughts

It doesn’t look like there’s much time left to take advantage of this promotion. Although it’s valid on events and meetings through March 31, 2023, those have to be booked by December 31, 2022.

Something else to bear in mind that Event Planner points are earned at a different rate than stays at Hilton properties. Hilton Honors members earn 10x points on Hilton stays (5x at their Home2 Suites and Tru brands), but event planners normally only earn 1x point per dollar spent on guest rooms, meeting rooms, etc., so this Plan It Forward promo means you’ll earn 2x Hilton Honors points. That’s not going to be a huge return unless you’re spending a lot on the event(s), but it’s points you might as well earn if you were going to book it at a Hilton property anyway.
