PG, with all due repect, this statement is simply wrong:

The 1:4 special UA-&gt;HH offer is probably the only airline transfer where value was not reduced.</font>
For example:

- None of the over 350,000 miles I've moved from UA, DL, and AA to BA through Diners in the last two years has lost any value. In fact, the DL and UA miles gained value by being combined into larger, more useful balances. Also, I was able to consolidate small balances from family members into one BA account.

- I very literally gained value when I turned 100,000 LatinPass miles into 120,000 AA miles (then 120,000 BA miles!) and a free week at ANY Marriott.
