Black Diamond status on Trip.com Rewards loyalty program

Hidden offers and benefits of this tier that are not publicly listed.

There are hidden benefits of this tier that are not listed on Trip.com's loyalty program website. For example, access to the VIP area of the Blackpink concert from Jan 24-26 2026 in Hong Kong!

Regrettably, I also wasn't aware of this kind of benefit during my previous review of Trip.com's loyalty program. This certainly increases my perceived value of Trip.com's loyalty program. If you're not a Black Diamond member - I'm a Diamond+ member - you'll see this in the app in the Rewards to be unlocked section, right below the Diamond+ tier rewards section.

Reevaluating the rewards valuation

As the Blackpink benefit above is up to 2 people, I will value that at $1000 (2 x $500) based on the most expensive ticket prices for the event, if you can even buy the ticket.

The fine print is there is a total of 10 Blackpink tickets (5 eligible users each bringing one guest), so it's still a lucky draw for you.

In other words, Black Diamond status benefits start at $355, but perhaps you might get $1355 worth of benefits.
