I bought a Delta ticket from Nashville (BNA) to Moscow (SVO) for March. I am not a Delta FF member, but I am a NWA member. So I called Delta, and they gave me 11,000 miles for NWA. I already had about 7,500 miles on NWA before that.

I am planning a trip to Australia in May, and while I will pay cash money for my ticket on Qantas, I'd like to not pay for my ticket from BNA to LAX. I'd love to have an award ticket. As I understand, I would need 25,000 NWA miles to get a domestic ticket. Right now, I have 18,500 (or when I get the miles credited). I need 6,500 miles.

Here's my question. I can sign up for a NWA Visa and get 5,000 points but I that's not enough. Or I can sign up for a Delta AmEx and get 10,000 miles. Can I transfer those miles from Delta to my NWA account? Can somebody enlighten me? ARe there any other options beisdes MRs or just flying more?

I do have an AmEx HiltonHHonors card with about 20,000 points on it and I do have the DoubleDipping thing enable, though I haven't seen anything deposited from them to my NWA account (the one listed as the default account). If somebody can shed some light on my options I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!
