Redemption on Star Alliance airlines:

The Star Alliance™ network gives you the opportunity to redeem your miles to over 800 destinations worldwide! Redeeming your miles for travel on Star Alliance airlines is one of the many new benefits we will offer when FlightFund® merges into the new Dividend Miles® program in spring 2006.
Until then, as a special benefit to our FlightFund members, we are offering the opportunity to transfer FlightFund miles into Dividend Miles. Your miles can then be redeemed for travel on Star Alliance member airlines. To use your miles to travel on Star Alliance airlines, just sign up for a Dividend Miles account, then follow these steps:

Visit www.points.com/usairways.com and create a points.com account, if you don’t already have one. Then, transfer your miles from your FlightFund account to your Dividend Miles account - for free!.
Gee... it would be nice of US AIRWAYS would advertise this option on their site. I get that HP essentially acquired US... but, they kept the US brand, so from a customer service perspective, their emphasis should be on the US AIRWAYS branded site!
