Better use of $300-Transfer miles or buy ticket-Thoughts needed???
This post got me thinking...

http://boardingarea.com/blogs/onemil...ransfer-bonus/

Here's a few points:
-My wife has 26,000 miles
-She needs to go to PIT in late Sept.
-Cost for the flight is $293.00 or 25,000 miles

She could care less about EARNING miles--

So I am thinking about transferring 25,000 miles from her account to mine-which would cost $280 and thus, I'd have 50,000 miles-Spend the 25,000 miles on her ticket-
Same amount of $$$ spent and I've have an "extra" 25,000 miles in my account for who knows what

Thoughts?
