Hi,

Quick question. Just wondering if its possible to transfer the Amex Altitude points to starwood? If so, what is the rate? I know you can transfer Amex Ascent points at 1000 Ascent points to 333 SPG points.

If anyone can point me in the right direction i would greatly appreciate it.

Amex has three programs - Ascent, Choices and Spirit.

Westpac has a program called Altitude.

Which program are you actually referring to (i.e. What do you mean by Amex Altitude)?

I realise that the awards maximiser has the ascent program, and the points may be transfered to SPG.

I was referring to the Westpac Altitude program. Is it possible to transfer Altitude points to SPG?

Not to my knowledge.

The only programs that can have points transfer from Altitude are a few Frquent Flyer programs, but no hotel programs.
