I found out that Hawaii card allows transfers – BUT only 10 total per year.
So first consolidate in another account if needed before transfer to your own.
Our friends and family circle hit a sna when I could not transfer anymore to mine
Waiting for the year to change before we try again on Jan 2
Dont waste the Bilt points on AS now. Wait for a better transfer ratio.
Better to get as many 72k (70k +2k spend) and consolidate
I see Carrie took Greg’s suggestion. Nice graphic! Happy Holidays to the FM team.
Calm down Mike Detroit , either constructive comments or questions about how cool Alaska air is, don’t need random commentary
Great episode. On the funny side, you forgot Bilt…again! I think it would be worth a mention as you can transfer from Bilt to Alaska. Of course the downside is the now reduced ability to earn Bilt points.
I don’t think it’s funny paddy, it’s absolutely appalling they forgot and pass themselves off as “frequent flyers”. More like frequent forgetters
Bilt is horrible
