The Offer

Direct link to offer

• American Airlines is offering a 25% transfer bonus when you transfer hotel points to American Airlines AAdvantage Miles. You do need to register to receive these bonus miles, just transfer as normal. Below are the hotel programs you can transfer from and their standard rates (remember to add the 25% bonus to this)
  • Hyatt: 5,000 points = 2,000 miles
  • IHG: 10,000 points = 2,000 miles
  • Marriott: 30,000 points = 10,000 miles (For every 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points converted within the same transaction

The Fine Print

• Valid through October 31, 2020

Our Verdict

All of the transfer rates are terrible, apart from transfer from Marriott. Normally 60,000 Marriott points = 25,000 American Airline miles. With the additional 25% transfer bonus this becomes 31,250 American Airline miles.  How useful this is will depend on how you value AA miles and how you value Marriott points.
