In light of the forthcoming devaluation in MR transfers to BA avios on Oct 1 (see http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ameri...01-2015-a.html 
), I think we can kiss the hope of any transfer bonuses goodbye till at least then (and probably quite a few months after that as well, I would imagine).

So where do I use mine - I got 75k - spouse got 125k.
We have a trip coming up to Hawaii (need airport to hotel transport) and Syd (need a rental car and hotel) - is there a special way to us MR points other than statement credit for these purchases?
Any other ways to use these MR points?
