Just as a note: LP told me that requests must be submitted prior to the last Monday of each month in order to be considered for that month. They only do point transfers on Mondays.

Oz,
Transfers from LP to member airline FF programs are only valid on LP carriers. Thus U cannot transfer LP miles to ACES, for example, and then use on AF/CO.
Lan Chile is not a LP member airline ='s no dice for travel on Lan Chile. They R a new OW member.
U might be able to work a trade using AA miles or another OW member like BA, for example.

Thanks tvl4free Here is one that may be of use for someone to burn/swap some points if you can use them for Hotels as well as flights:
I plan to spend NYE in RIO. I know several on line places to locate deals for Hotels in the USA, and Europe, but have not seen one for RIO. (Also need a couple nights in Santiago Chile and 1 or 2 in Buenos Aires probably) Does anyone know where to start looking? The Hilton does not have a property at all there, (strangely) otherwise I'd love to burn some points! I do not believe Sheraton/Starwood does either which is also strange - darn nuisance as I have a few of those UA 50% off certs for there.
The UA 50% off certs are also good for Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, Hyatt, Intercont, Libertel, Radisson, Shangri La, Sol Melia. Some of those chains MUST be down there - anyone know who?
Any help appreciated. Anyone with points that can be used there for Hotels (Latin Pass maybe?) please lets know, as we may be able to do a trade of some kind.

My November request processed and posted to Marriott within two weeks. I'm feeling much better about my run this spring.
