In my opinion, transferable points programs are the most valuable points to accumulate. These points can often be used at better than 1 cent per point value to book travel. Even better, points can be strategically transferred to airline and hotel programs when valuable awards are available. This page details all of the point transfers available from a number of bank programs.
If you prefer spreadsheets, you can find the Google Docs version of this post here.
For more about transferable points programs, please see: Transferable Points Programs Compared.
Where did Marriott go?
Marriott offers a huge number of transfer partners, most of which transfer from Marriott 3 to 1. I decided that this “Master List” page would be easier to read if I limited it to transferable points programs that offer 1 to 1 transfers to most programs. All Marriott transfer options can be found here: Marriott Bonvoy Transfer Partners.
Point Transfer Tips
Read all about each program:
- Amex Membership Rewards Guide
- Capital One “Rewards miles” Guide
- Chase Ultimate Rewards Guide
- Citi ThankYou Rewards Guide
- Bilt Rewards Guide
Don’t transfer speculatively: Don’t transfer points until high value awards are available and you are ready to book them. Transfers are one-way only. Transferable points are valuable for their flexibility. Once you transfer, you are locked into a single program that may or may not have awards available.
Share points: Most of the guides listed above detail how to share points with others.
Watch for transfer bonuses: Amex, Capital One, and Citi often offer improved transfer ratios through limited time transfer bonuses.
It’s sometimes cheaper to pay with points: Most bank programs offer ways to pay for travel with points rather than transferring those points to airline or hotel programs. Sometimes you’ll spend fewer points this way.
Current Transfer Bonuses
Here is a list of all of the current transfer bonuses we’re aware of:
Transfer From | Transfer Bonus Details | End Date |
---|---|---|
Amex | Get 30% bonus when transferring American Express Membership Rewards to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club | 2023/06/14 |
Amex | Get 20% bonus when transferring American Express Membership Rewards to Cathay Pacific Asia Miles | 2023/06/14 |
Chase | Chase: 30% transfer bonus to Virgin Atlantic | 2023/06/15 |
Citi | Get 25% bonus when transferring Citi ThankYou points to Air France/KLM Flying Blue | 2023/06/17 |
Best Transfer Partners
The following list of transfer partners are limited to those that we find most useful. Plenty of other programs are useful for select purposes and so you’ll find details about those later in this post.
Rewards Program | Amex Transfer Ratio (and transfer time) | Chase Transfer Ratio (and transfer time) | Citi Transfer Ratio (and transfer time) | Capital One Transfer Ratio (and transfer time) | Bilt Transfer Ratio (and transfer time) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Air Canada AeroplanBest Uses: Redeem for Star Alliance flights and/or flights with Air Canada partners (such as Etihad). No fuel surcharges; $39 CAD award booking fee; 5,000 points to add stopover on one-way award. See: Air Canada Aeroplan: Everything you need to know. | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (~1 Minute) | |
Air France KLM Flying BlueBest Uses: Monthly Air France Promo Awards often represent very good value. Air France miles can be used to book Sky Team awards, including Delta awards. Air France often offers very good business class award pricing between the US and Europe & Israel. | 1 to 1 (~10 minutes to 1 day) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (~5 Minutes) |
American AAdvantageBest Uses: Best for AA's web special awards or for partner awards such as Cathay Pacific business class, Qatar business class, Etihad first class, etc. AA no longer charges change or cancellation fees on awards. | 1 to 1 (1 Day) | ||||
ANA Mileage ClubBest Uses: Redeem for Star Alliance flights. Multiple stopovers allowed. ANA offers many great sweet-spot awards, including flying around the world in business class for as few as 115K miles! See also: ANA - a terrific Membership Rewards gem. | 1 to 1 (~1 day) | ||||
Avianca LifeMilesBest Uses: Avianca LifeMiles can be great for Star Alliance awards. They offer reasonable award prices and no fuel surcharges on awards. They also offer shorthaul awards within the US (for flying United, for example) for as few as 7,500 miles one-way. Best of all, their mixed-cabin pricing can lead to fantastic first-class award prices. See this post for details. | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | ||
Cathay Pacific Asia MilesBest Uses: Cathay Pacific has a decent distance based award chart, but they no longer allow stopovers longer than 24 hours. Cathay Pacific Asia Miles can be a good option for booking American Airlines flights with a distance based award chart, especially if other OneWorld Alliance miles aren't available. For long distance flights, it is possible to reduce the cost of a premium cabin award by adding on a lower cabin segment. See this post for details. | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (4 to 5 days) | 1 to 1 (~1 Minute) | |
HyattBest Uses: Use for Hyatt free nights, free suite nights, lounge upgrades, or suite upgrades. Hyatt points are often worth at least 2 cents each, but they’re sometimes worth far more. Bonus: award nights are not subject to resort fees. | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (~1 Minute) | |||
United MileagePlusBest Uses: United offers free award changes and free cancelations. Like Avianca and Aeroplan, United never charges fuel surcharges for awards. Unfortunately, United charges many more miles for international first class awards. Good uses of miles include United's Excursionist Perk awards and (sometimes) dynamically priced United economy awards. | 1 to 1 (Instant) | 1 to 1 (~1 Minute) |
Airline Loyalty Programs
In most cases it is free to transfer points. One exception is with Amex. For transfers to US airlines only, Amex usually charges an “excise tax offset fee” of $0.0006 per point (with a maximum fee of $99). Airlines subject to this fee are noted below.

You should insert a caveat about Delta: don’t waste your valuable points by transferring them to Delta. Delta has destroyed their loyalty program. They have devalued by more than 50%. Delta ‘Skypesos’ are now worth LESS than a penny each.
Amex to Avianca is not instant. I’ve done it a few times and it’s never instant. Not sure what your definition of ‘instant’ is.
Each time I’ve transferred recently it has taken under a minute. How long did it take for you?
Great Resource! Thanks! Any plans to add Bilt to the spreadsheet?
Thanks! Bilt is already there. If viewing on mobile you just need to swipe the table to see columns farther to the right
Odd… I don’t see it. I only see DC, MB, MR, UR, TY, C1, AP, MP and Brex. Is there a newer version than the one that is linked above?
Oh sorry, I thought you were talking about the tables in this post. Yes we can add Bilt to the spreadsheet
Awesome! Thanks!
“Don’t transfer speculatively”
I disagree. In some cases it absolutely makes sense to transfer speculatively. Keeping millions of miles in one currency like MR is a risk. They can decide to shut you down and confiscate your points on a whim. Better to transfer out (or cash out) when you hit a level of points you could not possibly use within the next couple of years… especially if there is a good transfer bonus and it’s a program you regularly use.
Funny, in the podcast we recorded on Thursday and released today, we discussed exactly this topic as part of the Giant Mailbag segment.
FYI, Chase transfers are not always instant. This past weekend I transferred 60k from my wife’s account to United and it was instant. First time transferring from her account Then transferred just 6k from mine and it took 4 days. Definitely not first time transferring from my account. Saw some posts about this on FlyerTalk.
Do you have plans to add Bilt to the spreadsheet? Thanks!!
Capital One point transfer to Avianca LifeMiles is NOT instant. Last week it took over 12 hours. I lost a pair of tix and have 126K stranded.
I received an email from United today offering to transfer Radisson points to United miles with 50% bonus. Normally I would not even look at this but I know that this option is not on your Google Spreadsheet.
The rate is terrible: 10,000 Radisson points to 1,000 United miles (or 1,500 with the bonus) so maybe unimportant. If it were not for overseas Radisson Blu hotels I might even consider a transfer as Radisson is dead to me on the West Coast – not a property I would consider staying at.
Another site that has similar info that I use as a reference often is travelbabel.com
British Airways is completely missing from this list.
Also Amex indirect transfers to Airlines via Marriott to AAdvantage for example.
Look at “Avios” for British airways
For indirect, there would be too many to list if I included all possible options so I generally limited to 2 to 1 or better

I love this compilation! I think another possible addition (maybe in an “other” column) to the hotel options is Amtrak to Choice 1:3. While not the best, with the annual fee variety card required and hefty spending requirements for transfer, the transfer options to hotels so seldom make sense except Hyatt that it’s good to have some viable alternatives.

great resource, my only worry with UR is if chase gets the notion they can shut you down and take them back. My wife has 250k of them and I feel the need to transfer about half of those out just to limit exposure.
Thank you for taking the time and energy to do this!
Thank you for this. Just a quick update – Citi does not instantly transfer to Cathay Pacific Asia miles. I made transfers just 2 months ago for myself and my wife’s account. It took about 2-3 days.
I really enjoy using this as an idea of what flex currencies transfer to what airline.
Any chance someone will update this spreadsheet now that SPG is “gone” and Marriott changed their structure?
I did update the spreadsheet a while ago. I still label it SPG (because that’s shorter than Marriott), but I show the new 60K to 25K transfer ratios
Ahhh I missed that. That seems like a good way to fix it.

Thank you for the in-depth instructions. I’m new to this and just now am constructing my credit card plans for my wife and me. For various reasons, we need to emphasize American and United Airlines miles in our travel plans. I’ve noticed that United should be no problem, but American appears more difficult to build points/miles. Any suggestions/modifications to your sample plan that would incorporate an emphasis on American flights into the equation? Thanks.
For earning AA miles, there are direct AA offers from Citibank (currently 60K each). Also, you can get Amex SPG cards and/or Chase Marriott cards (and convert Marriott points to SPG) and then convert SPG points to AA at a rate of 20K points = 25K AA miles.
The Chase BA card earns Avios that can be used to book AA flights (best used for relatively short non-stop flights).
And, of course, all bank cards that offer a pay with points option can be used to pay for AA flights.

Added Virgin Atlantic as a Citi ThankYou transfer partner
Thank you so much for this terrific resource, FT!
I have a running G-Sheet overview of my CC statuses & benefits that looks somewhat similar to this, so I just wanted to drop in a note and say I appreciate the detailed work that went into creating it 🙂
(Feel free to email me if you’d like the link to my CC overview sheet for inspiration–I just don’t want to share it publicly as it contains the exact dates of my apps, cancellations, bonuses, etc…)
(Note aside: for completeness’ sake, maybe add filters for Diners Club and Citi TY Pts…?)
Good catch. Done.

OMG!! I just spent hours trying to do this myself to book my family of 5 west coast to Hawaii and inter island using multiple orphan points. Next time I’ll use this! This week my transfers: SPG to husband’s SPG <1day; SPG-Alaska <2days; Amex MR-BA instant. Thanks for this!
Very helpful! thanks
Awesome stuff, thanks!
Thanks, JustSaying and HoKo. I appreciate your help. I don’t have either MR or UR, so I guess that’s why they didn’t ring a bell with me. This chart will really help as I move forward and start to acquire credit cards and points.
MR = Membership rewards (Amex)
UR = Ultimate rewards (Chase)
UR is Chase Ultimate Rewards which has the base Ink Bold and Ink Plus as foundations for all 5X……..
This is a wonderful chart. I’m pretty new to all of this and know this is going to sound like a stupid question, but what does MR and UR stand for? Is MR, Marriott Rewards? I know SPG, but don’t know UR. Thanks.
MR=Amex Membership Rewards
UR=Chase Ultimate Rewards
If you hover over the boxes on the top row, it tells you what the abbreviations stand for.
Thanks so much for this! Incredibly useful. I appreciate your long-term approach to our hobby so much more than some others. For that reason, I will always use and direct people to your referral links.
Is there any way you could add which airlines charge fuel surcharge since it would make a difference which one I would transfer to.
Great suggestion……they are game changers IMHO………….BA companion pass….meah I’ll pass a free ticket that costs $2500 in fuel surcharges for the pair…………
Yes, this would be great. I’ve talking with TravelIsFree about collaborating on that. I hope to have at least some of that info in there soon.
Great resource – thanks for making it available.
Should Aer Lingus be included ?
Yes, it should be shown as a non alliance partner of some airlines such as BA. Working on it.
Thanks so much. Excellent.
Very helpful Greg, would also be really helpful to see average transfer times for each combination of points/airline (I doubt you have all this info off the top of your head but I’ve seen similar posts from other bloggers and I’m sure you could source your readers for a lot of it)
That’s a good idea. Readers, please reply to HoKo’s comment with info about how long various transfers took. For example:
MR to BA: Instant
MR to Singapore: initiated on Friday evening, complete Sunday afternoon
etc.
Thanks for the great doc 🙂
Thank you!!!
Wow! Thanks. This is wonderful.
Great tool!! Thanks for sharing.
Great stuff! Most definitely a download and save!
Thanks. Actually, better to bookmark the page so that you’ll automatically get the most updated copy.
This is very helpful, thanks. There is some news about Air India joining Star Alliance. Have you included that?
No, I don’t actually list all of the alliance members. I just show which alliance each airline belongs to among the airlines that are transfer partners with UR, MR, and SPG. Air India isn’t one of them.
Thanks for doing this!
Let me add my thanks for this and the other googledocs. Some information goes out of date quickly as promotions and loopholes live and die, but these updated sheets are great and a reason I continue to come back to the blog everyday!
This is incredibly useful — thanks! Any chance you can add Diners on there? I know it’s rare, but I know quite a bit of old timers like myself who still have (and use) it.
Hmmm, I guess I can add Diners if there is much interest in it. Anyone else?
