HI-to-HH

This is a follow-up/summary of my recent post (Exchange Hawaiian Airline Miles for Hilton HHonor Points) with some more relevant information.  Earlier this month, I made 2 transfer from my Hawaiian Airlines account to my Hilton HHonors account.  I moved 25,000 miles out on June 10 and another 5,000 miles out on June 13.  Hawaiian Airlines told me that transfers take 1-2 weeks to show up.

Both groups of miles posted to my Hilton HHonors account on June 20.  

HI to Hilton Points

I am not 100% sure, but it looks like if you transfer miles out on or before Thursday, it should post to your account by the following Thursday.

I did a previous transfer from my Virgin Atlantic account to my Hilton HHonors account on January 17.

Before Virgin Atlantic to Hilton Points

The miles took longer to transfer and posted to my Hilton HHonors account on January 28.

Virgin Atlantic to Hilton Points

Since these Hilton HHonor points posted on Monday and we transferred out on Thursday, I wonder if I were to do a transfer on Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday if the Hilton HHonor points would post sooner than 2 Mondays.

In the end, it really depends what day you call in to have the miles transferred.  How long have your transfers taken?  Were they shorter or longer than 7-11 days?
