Are there any current bonus mile deals for buying multiple InsideFlyer subscriptions?

I bought 364 subs and requested to recieve only one sub a year for the next 364 years,so i have ensured my great-great-great-great-grandchildren will be up to date.I think they got the idea and i have not recieved a single issue but I do read it on my frequent flights.Can you imagine hauling to the trash bin 364 mags every month?

How many miles did you get in total?
Which program allows so many miles to be
deposited at once?
Thanks!

This is great cause now you can convert the points to AMEX and transfer them to Mexicana. Once you get them to Mexicana you can use the miles to issue tickets on LH & SQ and issue Star Alliance Award tickets.
Mexicana has the best Star Alliance award chart for International Business & First Class tickets.

Am I missing the value of the AMEX offer? If I were to buy 2 Inside Flyer subscriptions, I would receive 5,000 MR points for $119.90. However, I can buy 5,000 MR points direct from AMEX for $125. I guess $5 is $5, but I'm also thinking that the latter method is the more expedient.
Cheers.

Actually, it *was* 1:2, one Starwood to 2 Qantas. It is now 1:1.
Look here for the current list.
Some airlines are 1:2, some 1:1, some 2:1.
Not trying to split hairs, just clarify.

Regarding this AMEX offer is there a limit. The reason I ask this is because you can only buy upto 500,000 AMEX points in 1 year from AMEX.
Does Amex restrict the number of points or rewards coming into your account from other sources.
Thanks

That's almost $20,000 of Inside Flyer subscriptions. I suspect you are in the top few percentiles.
