How do I convert...?

Is there any single source that can tell me how to convert mileage/points/etc. from one program to another? My main FF program is AA, but I have thousands of miles/points on UAL, AW, Wyndham, Radisson, etc. (and a multitude of casinos) that I'll never do anything with (except maybe for the casinos). I'd love to be able to move them to AA, even if it wasn't 1:1.

cubsfan10 -- Here are some of your options:

UA --> HHonors --> AA (e.g., 25K UA miles would yield 12K AA miles).

AW --> AA through Points.com (7 AW miles yield 1 AA mile).

Radisson points can be transferred to AA miles, and the ratio depends on whether you've signed up for GoldPoints through Radisson or through one of their partners.

cubsfan10,

Another option is to take the UA miles through Diner's Club. Right now, 1 UA mile would yield 0.6 AA miles.

If you want 0.6 AA miles for each UA mile (or DC point), which is a 20 percent premium over the usual DC redemption ratio, sign up for AA promo DC20B before moving DC points over. The bonus is valid through the rest of 2001.

Use Diners Club (signup with the generous signup bonus if you dont have the Diners card). 10K DL miles will get you 6K AA miles with the promotion mentioned above.

Not that I know of, andres. But that's a good question. You might try posing in the KLM and Qualiflyer forums.
