Unhappy Air miles?

Anyone have some air miles to 'spare'? Some of you must have tons since you travel all the time.. Are they transferrable? Willing to pay Need two tickets to Las Vegas in mid October.

I have enough for a one way trip to montreal...

If my calculations are accurate.. by the time I'm 102 years old.. i can get a two way plane ticket to hong kong! I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

hehe.. how does it work exactly anyway? Is it a one for one type of deal? Meaning I would need 4,000 Air miles for one round trip ticket since Las Vegas is about 2,000 miles from Toronto?

I'm not so sure myself... i just looked at this stupid table they sent me. All I know is airmiles is the biggest scam. You get like two tickets to see a movie after spending 500 bucks. I gave up on Shell a long time ago as I used to drive a civic and i only get 20 bucks worth of gas.

I am however using amex air miles but planning to give up on it and go for that areo gold from cibc... my aunt has it and she seems to be getting good plane tickets.

Check airmiles' website to see if they have a list.

best thing for you to do... is get a part time job at Shell being a cashier.. if someone doesn't have an airmiles card... you swipe your own... you will get a trip to Vegas by months end

Sounds like a cheap rip off of that scam that steals credit card information to generate phonies. You can get a vegas ticket by an hour later with that scam haha.

Crap... I thought you might have a boatload.. Other than transferring directly, you cannot just get two tickets in someone else's name?
