It costs me $15 to transfer 1000 miles to another account. Or it’s costs you $64.50 to buy 2000 of them. I value AA miles at 1.6 cents per mile so that’s 31 bucks of value leaving my pocket to transfer. Since AA sells them at 3.2 cents per mile, seems we have an arbitrage opportunity.
So yes, we can split the difference and call it $45 for 1000 or buy 2000 from AA for $64.
I appreciate the ask but AA will almost always be the better deal than asking someone to risk expulsion from the AAdvantage program by selling or transferring miles to a stranger. That said, it happens all the time and I’m sure someone is 100% willing. Just be careful. Gotta protect your account and theirs.
Fair point. The award value just changed anyways lol
How would I give them to you?
You can transfer them on the AA website with my contact info and AA ID.
I’m willing to pay for them. There’s a $15 transfer fee and then what you think is fair for the 1k miles. DM me if interested.
You can always transfer a few Marriott points to cover it. I did this recently
Noooooo too late. Good for future reference. Thanks!
