thanks for any help!!
Hmm. You could transfer them right now to BA Avios with a 35% bonus (thru 6/7/13). Not sure if there are transfer limits, but if there aren't you could turn those 500,000 into 675,000 Avios which would get you a nice trip somewhere on BA for four people - just maybe not Australia or BKK).
