Former Delta account redemption options
I logged in this morning and saw that I could now redeem e-miles for United, UsAirways, Frontier, AirTran, Southwest, and Alaska (all at 500 e-miles points/500 airline points).

I also have hotel redemption options for Hilton (500 e-miles for 1,000 HH points) and Priority Club (500 e-miles for 750 PC points).

Interesting that PC points are not as good a deal now on e-miles as on e-rewards relative to airline miles. On e-rewards, the PC points/airline miles ratio is 2-1; on e-miles, it is only 1.5.

Regardless, I'm happy to have airline options again.

Thanks needtoescape, I did not know what to do with my points since Delta left e-miles. Transfering to United works for me. Thanks for posting!

Damn, I wish I would have held out a month longer! Last month I finally cashed out for an amazon cert, cancelled my account, then resigned up with a 500 mile bonus from United.

Ah, but now you have an extra 500 mile bonus that should make up for it.

That is VERY true, however, I would have had 600 miles instead of a measly $10 amazon.com certificate.

True, but then, I do a lot of shopping at Amazon.com, so I'd take the certificate.

Am I the only one that keeps getting email from e-miles saying that I have new earning opportunities available only to log on and see that there are none?

It's happended to me twice but not a big deal. It's kinda free and a little distraction.
