Hey again...sorry to bother you guys again!! 
I have two HH amex cards. I really wanted to combine and streamline but Amex politely said no.
I can transfer a card to another Amex brand. Well, ok, but I want the one with the best bonus because AMEX says whatever is in effect, I can have that bonus with the signup. BTW, Amex also says my credit report will not be
be perused and hit with an inquiry but if knowledgable FTers know better, please advise (see other thread I began).
So, what Amex brand is suggested here for my transfer? Choices are DL Skymiles, Starwood, and one other that I can't remember (anyone?)...
I have FF accounts with orphan miles: US, UA, AA, Choice hotel points, HH (under 40000). I have credits on WN but need more to fulfill a mutual gifting arrangement paid forward to me;I have the IOU. So, really, I need to fill the WN coffers first so please keep in mind transfer scenarios when you reply. I would only consider Starwood for transfers because in most cases, they are cost prohibitive for overnight stays, ie. Northern Virginia high cost area.
Thank you. I can always count on the smartest (and savviest) travelers out there....FTers!!!!!
Good day!!! Jan_believes

Go Starwood. 10K signup bonus + excellent transferability & Coupon Connection demand.
DL miles are too hard to use.
