Amex Hilton Aspire Card 175K Bonus
American Express and Hilton have launched a new welcome bonus for the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card. The annual fee on this card recently increased by $100 and there’s a new design.
Benefits also changed during the recent refresh. The card now gets quarterly $50 Airline Fee Credit instead of $250 annually and a semi-annual $200 Hilton Resort Credit which is an improvement. The card lost Priority Pass but now gets Cell Phone Protection, National Emerald status and a $189 Clear Plus credit.

Guru’s Wrap-up
This 175K bonus is a good offer for the Hilton Honors American Express Aspire Card. However, we saw a slightly better offer of 180,000 bonus points earlier this year.
While the fee increase and the loss of Priority Pass sting a bit, the card is still valuable for Hilton loyalists. The annual credits and the Hilton perks make it worthwhile, and then there’s the welcome bonus of 175,000 points.
