Air Canada and Continental are both good options.
ANA and Flying Blue may be worthwhile.
Airtran even may be decent.
Hard to say really...
Thanks.
do they ever let you transfer 1:1 to starpoints?
It shows on my statemens
30,000 points earned
1,130 - pending
but in the balance it shows 0   :(
when I called up they said that they are both pending and they could only put through the 1000 now, not the 30,000 bonus
btw I payed my balance yesterday and today it confirmed...

No, the AMEX:SPG rate is 3:1, although once in a blue moon they offer 2:1.

I got the 30,00 available. Do you think I should be worried that they will remove it? Should I transfer it to CO now?
Also I noticed they want to charge me 18.00 to transfer 30,000 points. I was totally unaware of the fee.. Is there any way around it?

I know someone that applied in early March and already has 30K points already.
I'd apply now, spend the $1,000 and hope for the best!

I would probably transfer them.

Have any other 30K recipients seen their points gone from 30K to 15K?

I am going to do it. Any way around the 18.00 fee to transer 30000 points to CO. ( I am transferring to CO just because)

If you transfer to non-US airlines there is no fee.
But $18 is no big deal in my book for 30,000 miles and CO is a fine safe choice.
