At a cent a piece?
What's the worst case scenario?  You burn 'em on 2 domestic tickets?

Yup, I mean 2 tix to say, Banff, would be $1,400 versus $567 this way. 
Or use them the right way-90K to Asia in business.

With this price I would use another 30k for F, even if you can't get all legs in.

Does anyone think there is a risk from sending to different accounts in my name

Still waffling on this one.

The only reason I'm considering it is because I have the 25% rebate.

If you had it, would you do it?
I pulled the trigger at the last minute.
It also helped me to clear out a small account, and consolidate my miles in a larger account which will make them more valuable for all purposes.

I opened my us airways account on the Oct. 3 transferred 40k SPG points, now we have in the new account, 50k us dividend miles,.  on the Oct 15 I transfer 50k point using the share miles bonus and expecting 100k instantly in the old account, its not there,
so I call USAir, they tell me that I did not qualify because of the 12 day rule, in fact my account is open for 13 days.
anybody experience any problem???

Forgive me, but why not simply point out that your account was opened on 10/3? ???

that what I did, and the supervisor said that they would not count the day the account was opened,
and my argument was that the account is not lees then 12 days old, and according to the t&c I should qualify..................
I was promised an email response by Friday the 18th

Something merger-related is happening on 11/30? Miles getting merged to AA/OW?

Makes sense, I meant there isn't an intrinsic link.

(let me guess, now you're going to tell me that for you there is...)

Just to update, it took almost 24 hours to go through, but I was finally able to transfer the 50K back to my own account, and the final transaction just went through this morning so in the end this worked out.

ye but this one is for purchased on gifted miles, which is not as lucrative as you are paying more than 1.8CPM, where as with the shared one, you are paying close to 1.1cpm
