Before you transfer
- Transfers go one way. Once points move to a partner they can't come back, so transfer only when the award you want is there to book.
- Ratios change. Issuers add and drop partners and run limited-time transfer bonuses. Check the terms on the day you move.
- "Instant" usually means minutes. Some partners take days, and an award seat can disappear while points are in transit.
- Blocks and names. Most transfers go in blocks of 1,000, and the airline or hotel account must be in your own name.
