How to Transfer SkyMiles without a fee
Hi,
I am Delta Platinum and have over 500K SM. I am looking to transfer some to my son and daughter in law so they can book 2 biz class tickets. They will then transfer the miles back to me once they have them accumulated - this will likely be done in a few months but we want to jump on award seats now.
When I called Delta they told me there is a charge of $100 per 1K miles plus $30 fee. So to transfer 240K miles would cost me nearly $2,500!!!!
Keep in mind this is moving miles from one SkyMiles member to another.
Is this standard? Is there any way around this fee?
HELP!!!!
