Notes: The Aeromexico partnership ended January 25, 2026. Full 1:1 ratios apply to Citi Strata Premier and Strata Elite cardholders; some no-fee cards transfer at reduced rates to certain partners.
American Airlines AAdvantage is the headline partner — AA miles are worth roughly 1.5 cents each and no other transferable currency reaches them. Turkish Miles&Smiles and Avianca LifeMiles are excellent for Star Alliance awards, and Choice Privileges at 1:1.5 can be a sneaky-good hotel deal.
Most partners are instant, including American Airlines, Avianca, Flying Blue, and Turkish. Singapore KrisFlyer can take up to a day.
Citi Strata Premier and Strata Elite unlock the full partner list at full ratios. Points from no-fee cards like Double Cash and Custom Cash can be pooled with a Strata card to access all partners.
Not directly. Use Avianca or Turkish for United (Star Alliance), and Flying Blue or Virgin Atlantic for Delta (SkyTeam).
1,000 points minimum in 1,000-point increments for most airline partners.
