1. Open a Continental card and get 20,000 OnePass Miles
2. Transfer the OnePass miles into Amtrak Guest Rewards points 1=1 (must be transfered in blocks of 5,000)
3. Transfer your 20,000 Amtrak points into 100,000 Choice Hotel Points (must be transfered in blocks of 5,000 Amtrak points, 5,000AGR=25,000CHP)
4. Transfer 100,00CH into 40 Rapid Rewards credits. 5,000CH=2RR

You can also get the midwest miles card which gives a 15k bonus. The AGR card only offers 8k bonus.

I suppose this works with any CO miles one happens to have?? If so, a real deal. Great find if it works. Thanks.

Anyone else do this -- as I would hate to go thru the hassle and follow up and end up with a bad deal.
