Transfer times: As a general rule, MR transfers are instant with a few exceptions. Exceptions: SQ:(please complete) NH: Usually the morning of 2nd business day after transfer

SPG transfers can take anywhere from a single night to a month, depending on the airline.

Transfer rates and fees: All points transferred transfer at a 1:1 ratio unless otherwise noted.

One major exception, is that for every 20K transferred into an airline from SPG, there is a 20% bonus. For example, if you transfer 20K SPG into AA, you will get 25K AA, and if you transfer 21K, you will get 26K.

SPG to LAN transfers at a 1:2 ratio. SPG to NZ is 65:1. MR to LY is (please complete)

There is no fee for SPG transfers.

There is a fee for MR transfers made to CO and DL, along with any other U.S. based carrier, like Frontier. The fee is $6 for every 10K transferred, and is prorated. The maximum fee is $99. There is no fee for UR transfers.
