Guru’s Wrap-Up

Most conversion don’t make any sense at all since transfer rates are terrible. SPG could be the only exception here. The conversion rate is 1:1 and you also get a 5,000 bonus for every 20,000 Starpoints that you transfer. So for 20K Starpoints you will receive a total of 31,250 AAdvantage miles.
