Yup. I imagine a DDMS post is coming on this as well, and the tone won't be as positive as the other posts.

For 120k Alaska miles, may as well cash it in before 8/1 right? Like I won't be getting less than if I'd do it direct and they're just throwing in a 7 day voucher, right?

I.e. My as well transfer with the travel package if I'm anyways  planning to transfer that amount of spg points into Airline miles. No one wrote it clearly so I was confused what was the down side. Finally found milevalue spell it out clearly that way.

Don't you end up loosing miles that way?
