Frequent Miler on the Air · Sunday, August 2, 2026
The Frequent Miler podcast discussed which Marriott Bonvoy transfer partners are most valuable, noting that while Marriott has many partners, transfers are often not 1:1, making them less appealing than other flexible currencies. Greg and the host highlighted Aegean, Copa, and Virgin Australia as unique and potentially valuable partners.
“So, Greg, what do you say? Okay, um, yeah. I mean, Flyer Dad is right in that Marriott has a fantastic long list of transfer partners.”
“So, for the most part, we would consider this with that type of transfer. You'd be transferring 60,000 Marriott points to become 25,000 airline miles for most of the airline partners.”
“So the three I'd put at the top are Aegean, Copa, and Virgin Australia. Those are the ones that are most unique to Marriott and offer the best opportunities.”
