Not all rental car loyalty programs have an option to convert their loyalty points to other programs. In most cases you would simply earn airline miles when selecting that option as your earning preference for a given rental. So if you chose AAdvantage as your earning preference on a rental and earned say 200 AAdvantage miles, those miles would just show up in your AAdvantage account a few days or so after the rental ended - no need to do any transferring.
The everyday airline mileage earnings from rental cars won't be anything to get too excited about but every little bit helps. The thing to keep an eye out for is periodic special promotions with extra bonus miles from rental car partners.
