Points/miles conversion website?
 
Hello,
Quick question on a recent thread I have not been able to recover. What website is it that lists all the possible permutations for converting points, such as SPG or AMEX MR, to airline miles? Thanks!

It's a very useful web site, but pretty depressing to see how little your miles are worth when you try to transfer them. My wife and son have 3000 in US Airways (the miles will expire this year), and to move to Alaska Airlines, they would get 7 miles each, and this is after the fee to move.

Sometimes, even points.com is useful because it allows really tiny conversions. I've converted miles at something like 3:1 or 7:1 - literally. I have about 130 miles in Midwest Express and recently converted about 10 or so into one AA mile and one DL mile - it extends the expiration in all three programs.

Yes, I've observed the same thing and did a similar tiny conversion to extend expirations. ^

That's great advice. :)

Pretty useful site as well to calculate conversion rates, gives you several options and how to do it.

I think I might be doing something wrong, but I can't see how to convert from US Airway miles to anything?

US Airways miles can be converted through http://points.com , but as mentioned the loss of value is very substantial.

How can you possibly lose value from US?
