Conclusion
The bonus is great, and you;re just transferring LifeMiles from one account to another, maybe a friend’s or family member’s. But the issue is the fees that come with these transfers. You need to pay $15 plus taxes for every 1,000 LifeMiles that you transfer. That will make the cost of these bonus miles about 1.3 cents each. That could still be useful, but that will depend on how much you value LifeMiles.
If you don’t have LifeMiles in your account, then you can transfer from these programs:
- 1:1.15 (with current 15% bonus) from Amex Membership Rewards
- 2:1.5 from Capital One
- 1:1 from Citi ThankYou Rewards
- 3:1 from Marriott Bonvoy
