Do any points/miles transfer to Southwest?
« on: January 13, 2013, 10:50:06 PM »
I'm looking to travel from detroit to vegas from feb 17-21 and it seems that the only ones who fly direct are southwest, spirit, and delta. In general, I haven't had great experiences with spirit and would like to avoid them if possible. I have lots of points with chase, amex, and in avios. Do any of these transfer to southwest so I can use them to purchase the ticket?
Also, how many delta miles would i need for such a flight and do any of my points transfer to Delta?

Amex transfers to Delta, the minimum u would need is 25,000 miles roundtrip.

Pros:  Points will count towards Companion Pass.
Cons:  You lose points in the process.
