I'll give you a 1000

Thanks! I will send you a BM

Heath Squashwell

Gross, what does BM have to do with anything?

Can you transfer points to a non household member?

cougarfann888

5/16/19 2:34pm

Does it really cost money? Man my hopes are dashed

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 2:37pm

Yeah I was willing to give up 5k Amex points but apparently amex

cougarfann888

For $150

For real? What a joke

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 2:39pm

Sorry, but I believe you’re the one asking for free money

In my defense, when i made the post, I didn't realize there was a transfer fee.

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 2:55pm

Except they are utilized by Delta as a form of currency.

Perhaps skip the magazine subscription & save them for an occasion like this

All those wasted magazines.... didn't even read them...

I don't think I want to spend $80 to send you my Skymiles.

Ute in DC

5/16/19 2:45pm

Lol I would pay you the 80. My other options are buy the flight or $210 for 6000

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 2:46pm

Costs a cent per mile and $30 fee so $80 for someone to transfer 5000 miles

So... you'll do it? Nice!

Just buy a ticket, don’t be cheap.

Cougstreak

....or just buy miles.

26k points to fly to SLC? Where are you flying from... Honolulu?

Delta points are worthless I was surprised he got a round trip flight for that

cougarfann888

5/16/19 3:06pm

False. Delta and Southworst are the only viable points

UNHuskerCoug

5/16/19 3:20pm

I don’t live in slc which maybe why I view them as worthless I prefer southwest

cougarfann888

5/16/19 3:27pm

Southworst? Horrible. I fly on average 3 times per

UNHuskerCoug

5/16/19 3:43pm

I don't love southwest, but nothing is worse than frontier

MaxxPower

5/16/19 5:16pm

I am not talking about quality of produxt but value of points two very different

cougarfann888

5/16/19 5:42pm

Southwest has been on time every time I've been late

gingi

5/16/19 5:44pm

And as far as punctuality of flights the studies show southwest is

cougarfann888

5/16/19 5:45pm

The pull towards southwest is 2 free bags and “free” cancelations

If I had any I would gladly donate them to you. Sadly I have 0.

Me too. Definitely me too.

I have a 💩Ton. And no. You can’t have them. Opt to pay with miles + cash.

UNHuskerCoug

5/16/19 3:17pm

I actually didn’t know that was an option

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 3:26pm

Select on your booking page. Miles + Money.

UNHuskerCoug

Seriously?

Does anyone have a ticket on the 50 yard line they would be willing to donate to

Just in case you're losing sleep over this I bought my tickets, see you in Provo

Heath Squashwell

5/16/19 3:45pm

Just an FYI. If you are ever looking to donate miles to someone

BP4byu

5/16/19 4:16pm

That's absolutely true and that's the correct protocol for donating a flight

donnerstag

5/16/19 4:40pm

That's true and I'm sure that Delta prefers it that way

BP4byu

5/16/19 5:12pm

There are transfer fees unless you are Diamond. I tried transferring my wife

Archaea

5/16/19 6:10pm

Yes it is
