Seems to me that in many cases that someone who has 500,000 MR points to transfer is probably Medallion anyway. I do agree with Rssrsvp in that most of us who earn our status by flying may not be huge fans of this element of the promotion..but seems to me that the 20% bonus for transferring 500,000 MR to Skymiles and receiving an additional 100,000 Skymiles in the process is hard to pass up. I can remember a similar promo several months ago where you could receive a 25% bonus on the transfer, but there was a cap on the amount that could be transferred @ 100,000 (?).. I would say that to be able to transfer an additional 400,000 for the 20% add-on is a great deal. Am I not seeing something here ???
