AMEX PC

I have the Delta Gold Card and I was looking for PC to a diffrent card. AMEX told me that I can change my card to the Hilton card or BCE or Blue Sky. I was thinking of the Hilton card, is is worth it or not?

Was told the same thing.  I plan to hold out for a while and see if the ED or EDP become PC options.

I would go with the hilton card. I am not sure how the points translate over but if you like staying at hilton hotels it looks like you can get a ton of points by using this card.

The more important thing is to figure out how much each point is worth. I've seen a value of 0.4 cents per point posted somewhere. A mid-level property will require 30k to 60k points per night. That's 10k to 20k of general spend on the Hilton card. If you spend for example $100 on the card per month, it'll take 100 to 200 months to save up for a free night.
