Anyone willing to part ways with 1k American Airlines miles? Short for a round trip flight to ski and don’t need the 2k minimum.

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!

We’re planning to be in Kauai for a week in mid-December, but I’m thinking of extending the trip an extra 10 days. Would we have enough to do with a 4yo in tow? Or maybe not worth it to stay that long? Staying at the Grand Hyatt first week, then downgrade to Sheraton Coconut Beach.

My American citizen 8 month old is on tourist visa in India; current stay runs out on June 7. Flying outside the country is a risk we don’t want to take w/COVID. Don’t want to overstay the visa either. So we applied online on eFRRO to convert his visa to X-1 so we can apply for his OCI. They didn’t ask for payment and message popped up saying watch your text/email for next steps. Anything else I can do?
