“Over the past several months we’ve acted decisively to respond to the global pandemic, with an emphasis on protecting our owners, guests, and team members, along with making critical decisions to support our business model,” said Mark Wang, president and CEO of Hilton Grand Vacations. “As we resumed operations in June, we saw our owners and guests quickly return where conditions permitted, signaling their continued desire to travel.
