An item of semi-good news for a change... just called AMEX Platinum to transfer my points, originally destined for CDN Plus, now to Delta, prior to the May 1st deadline.
They've extended the deadline, I am told now, until July 1st. This means there will be no 3,500 points transfer fee until July 1.
Wish they would have done away with it all together, but it's a start!
