Limit on membership miles trx to dl
Yesterday, I received a letter from AMEX telling me that, effective 01/01/15, I can only transfer 250K Membership Miles to my DL account per year. I presently have north of 600K MMs and earn about 250 - 300K MMs annually.
My wife and I like to take at least one "big" trip annually, flying first/business (this year, South Africa with a SkyMile cost of about 360K total).
Any recommendations as to what I should do with my current MM balance? Transfer it all now? Transfer some now? Use the MMs to buy something on Amazon?
