interesting...im on the phone with Amex now (since i had a problem transferring into my account) and theyre telling me that in general, online, its not possible to transfer MR to someone elses airline account, and if i call up and want to transfer they can make an exception!
maybe this is old news and it obviously it prob works online, as Dan states but im new to this.

Well now that he posted it I don't know if it's still coming...
Why not? If anything, they'd simply speed it up.
This isn't similar to the Citi TYP fiasco.

It doesn't make sense to me that Citi killed that merely because they lost the element of surprise. There's more hiding there.

Agree 100%.
If anything, you'd imagine the buzz would be exactly what they wanted to generate.
