loyalty program points to MileagePlus. The bonus is 30% and they will
award up to 25,000 bonus miles in total after you have completed all
your transfers. Your best conversion bet is from Marriott/SPG but also
IHG thanks to the latter’s buy points bonus.With this bonus you could
actually ‘buy’ MileagePlus miles for just over US 1.9 cents each with the
current IHG Rewards Club buy points bonus. You can buy 200,000 points
for US$1,000 with IHG and then convert those to MileagePlus. The 200,000
converts to 40,000 MileagePlus Miles and the 30% bonus boosts that to
52,000 miles.
