clanson, have your friend transfer his AMEX miles to Delta and then request a reward ticket from DL when you know where you want to travel to. The ticket must be mailed to your friend's address, but will be issued to your name.

I have a close friend who would like to gift me a block of miles or points. He has plenty of Delta, Marriott and Amex miles/points but we run into a stumbling block because of different names & account numbers. Does anyone have a work-around?
