If you recently applied for the Chase Marriott 70,000 points offer, this could be a great way to add to your American or US Airways account(s), if you aren&#8217;t planning to use Marriott points for anything. The conversion rates are kinda terrible, but depends on how you value these points. I personally am not going to participate in this, as I do see my 140,000 Marriott points valuable, since I applied for myself and my wife. I plan on redeeming them for a nice stay in Hawaii when my girls are old enough to understand yes, no, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.detroitnews.com\/story\/business\/personal-finance\/2014\/09\/29\/sneaky-hotel-minibar-charges\/16399363\/\" target=\"_blank\">don&#8217;t touch that snack tray<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/vmcxYjZ.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/vmcxYjZl.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"274\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The United rates are a bit better, but still not a huge bargain.\u00a0 This could be a great way to top off a Mileage Plus account in case you have a certain award redemption in mind. See the rates below. 35,000 United miles for 80,000 Marriott points doesn&#8217;t really sound that great. BUT..if you are looking for a specific award redemption in mind, then you may want to go ahead with it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/gDFKN09h.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/gDFKN09l.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"133\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you have a Marriott Rewards account, look for this email today or in the coming days.
