The rates Dan posted is when they have availability at those amounts.
Sometimes they only have availability at higher amounts.

True, but that's not what I meant.  If you're searching on usairways.com you won't get anywhere.

Amex -> SPG -> USair
« Reply #53 on: March 17, 2012, 01:17:24 AM »
In order to take advantage of current promotions from Amex to SPG and SPG to us air. I had transferred 40000 Amex to get 20 SPG. This got done instantly. Then in transferred 20000 SPG with 5000 bonus to us air. I should have got 37500 us air. SPG website shows it transferred it. However usairways is not showing deposit. It is over 1 week. Standard answer of SPG customer rep is that wait for 14 days to finish transfer. Any suggestions? Does any one experience so much wait between SPG and usairways ? What if I miss promotion window before transfer comes thru?

Thanks Dan. I did see my 25K miles posted today in US AIR account. do you know when will I see my bonus of 12.5K from US AIR? Do I have to do anything for it? I didnot see bonus post along with 25K miles from SPG.
