So this morning, I transferred 1,000 points to BA and when the bonus posts, I'll get a total of 6,000 for my efforts. No - it won't take you far but it seems to good to pass up. Thought I'd pass it on.
Thanks, this is actually very usefull as I'm all of a sudden very interested in BA diue to the 100k miles Chase Visa offer. I'm going to be about 12k miles short of a dream trip (LAX - MLE (maldives)), and this just took care of half of it!
Much appreciated!
