Hilton Honors has recently brought back its Diamond status extension offer. Eligible Diamond members can apply to extend their status for one additional year. However, this is a one-time benefit, and you must meet certain requirements to qualify.
Simply visit the dedicated Diamond status extension page and follow the steps to request an extension through March 31, 2026. To successfully apply for a Hilton Diamond status extension, you need to meet the following requirements:
- You currently hold Diamond status that is set to expire on March 31, 2025.
- You have held Diamond status for at least three years; the years do not need to be consecutive.
- You have stayed at least 250 nights with Hilton (including both paid stays and award stays), or earned more than 500,000 base points since joining Hilton Honors.
Key terms
- **You may request a one-time Hilton Diamond status extension.**
- **The extended status is valid for one year.**
- **This benefit can only be used once during your membership lifetime.**
- **You must meet the eligibility requirements to apply for the extension.**
- **Once granted, the extension cannot be reversed.**
- **Diamond status obtained through a status match does not count toward the three-year requirement.**
- **The three years do not need to be consecutive.**
- **At the end of the extension period, you will need to requalify in order to keep Hilton Diamond status.**
If you really value Hilton Diamond status, especially the free breakfast for two and lounge access, it may be worth keeping the Hilton Aspire card long term. The card’s built-in statement credits are easy to use and can almost offset the annual fee.
