I don't think anyone has yet reported receiving the new cards, but the fee was a feature of the program, not of a specific card.

I noticed that Korean Air is no longer listed on the Club Rewards US catalog as a points to miles partner...It's still listed in the thread wiki.

Korean Air was probably going to be the main program to which I was going to transfer my Club Rewards points.

Does anyone know whether this is permanent or if it is a temporary issue with the website catalog?

What fee? I don't recall paying any fee to transfer to AC Aeroplan from Rewards on my Professional Card.

IIRC correctly the fee is only for transferring to airlines based in the US, not to foreign airlines (and AC Aeroplan is Canada-based) or to any hotel programs.

That is accurate for American Express. The Diners Club (USA) fee applied for transfer to any airline, but it was eliminated when BMO Harris Bank assumed operational control of the program. They did not announce the change, just removed it.

There was no announcement that Korean was leaving the program. Someone will need to call to ask if the they are gone, or if it is a catalog database error.

Sorry for the noobish question.

Starwood (1250:750)

Is this 1250 Diners points for 750 Starwood points Or is it 1250 Starwood points at a cost of 750 Diners points?

All Diners hotel transfers are made in increments of 1250 Club Rewards points. Hyatt and Starwood are 1250:750 (1:0.6), but all of the others are better than 1:1.

I called and they said that Korean has been gone since April.

Was going to transfer for 2 F on ATL-ICN 380. Darn!

Can anyone pls confirm if Diners Club allows transfer to 3rd party FF accounts as of now? e.g. transferring from Diners account of person A to Alaska account of person B. If so, are there any limitations?

I've heard they do allow this which is a major benefit. I read in a blogger's comment section about someone who claimed to have made multiple transfers to family and friends' accounts over his years with Diners Club. Can anyone on here vouch for that?

In general, Diners Club (USA) has permitted transfers without requiring a name match, but there have always been exceptions, and these exceptions are not publicized by Diners. They are discovered when a transaction fails. Someone will need to test Alaska Airlines, if that is the favorite program this year.

Thanks for the info. If the potential transfer were to fail, would the club points remain or be expended in the failed attempt?
