A major points transfer pathway is shutting down—and it's got a lot of people wondering: should I move my Amex points to Alaska Airlines before the door closes?
In this episode, I break down the fast-approaching June 30 deadline to transfer Amex points to Hawaiian Airlines (and from there to Alaska), and walk you through my personal decision—including the 4-step framework I use for evaluating speculative points transfers.
If you've ever wondered whether it's smart to move points to a transfer partner without a specific booking in mind, this episode will help you weigh the risk and make a decision you can feel confident in—whether it's for this opportunity or any future bonus or expiring partnership.
