Swaparamability

As noted VA can do HA, but can't we all just get along? My VA and BoH HA and BoA HA cards all played nice together. Why use VA for HA when more optimal on CO, UA, and US? Get the BoH HA and BoA HA, stipmine the HA miles then properly dispose of the cards and move on. Ya gotta admit the BoH HA and BoA HA feed HA miles which, like Flexperks, can transfer to other parties with no fees - they definitely have Swaparamability!

OTOH VA miles can be used on CO, UA, and US and are more valuable on Hawaiian than Hawaiian miles (6K RT inter-island vs. 15K). Plus VA will likely join *A.
