Conclusion
The award availability is plenty right now, as many cannot or are unable to (understandably) commit to reservations in late 2020 or early 2021.
The best use of Hilton Honors points is when the paid rates are through the roof, such as the Waldorf Astoria Maldives (effectively $600 per night) or at some 5,000/10,000 points or lower cat properties that have high paid rates.
