But compared to $4000-$5000 worth of hotel rooms, the twenty-five bucks is lost in the noise.
Then enlighten us with specifics with how transfering from a hotel program into an airline program into a hotel program make any sense. Conversions from one program to another tend to lessen the value of the points. Additional transfers devalue the original points further.
