I don’t write much about SAS EuroBonus on Head for Points – in fact, this may be the first ever proper mention!

This new Hilton offer, though, looks interesting.

You usually earn 500 SAS miles per Hilton. Under this promo, you earn a bonus of 500 on your 1st stay, 1000 on your 2nd stay and 1500 on ALL subsequent stays. That means up to 2,000 miles per stay.

The offer runs until 30th November. If you were staying in two Hilton hotels per week – lets say you were planning 25 one-night stays over the next three months – you would earn close to 50,000 SAS Euro Bonus miles.

SAS is a member of Star Alliance, so you can redeem across their full list of members.

More importantly, SAS EuroBonus is also an Amex Membership Rewards partner, so if you ended up a few miles short of an award, you could top it up with Amex points.

PS. If you are not a regular Head for Points visitor, why not sign up for our FREE weekly or daily newsletters? They are full of the latest Avios, airline, hotel and credit card points news and will help you travel better.

How to earn Hilton Honors points and status from UK credit cards (April 2025)

There are various ways of earning Hilton Honors points from UK credit and debit cards.  Many cards also have generous sign-up bonuses.

There are two dedicated Hilton Honors debit cards. These are especially attractive when spending abroad due to the 0% or 0.5% FX fee, depending on card.

You also receive FREE Hilton Honors status for as long as you hold the debit cards – Gold status with the Plus card and Silver status with the basic card. This is a great reason to apply even if you rarely use it.

We reviewed the Hilton Honors Plus Debit Card here and the Hilton Honors Debit Card here.

You can apply for either card here.

SPECIAL OFFER: Until 30th April 2025, the annual fee on the basic Hilton Honors debit card is halved from £60 to £30. The sign-up bonus is also easier to earn – you need to spend £1,000 either in the UK or abroad within three months. The usual bonus rule requires you to spend the full £1,000 outside the UK.
