From SPG points you can transfer them to AA or USDM at 1:1 plus an extra 5k per 20k transferred. That is...

    How do you value a point?

    Everyone will have their own ideas, I'm interested in hearing them and why... (Poll included) So I see 4 ways to value a point (could be CC, airline, hotel etc...) 1. What it 'cost' you. This cost could be based on earning it flying for work (ie $0) or it could be the cost of choosing to pay...

    AA Share promo

    Thought this would have been posted... but AA have a share promo on. Only 25-35% bonus so not as good as USDM. At 35% bonus you're paying over 3cpm so not great value unless you wanted to consolidate some accounts...
