The offer mentioned below has expired and is no longer available.

United Airlines’ newest promotion allows travelers to convert points from Wyndham Rewards into United MileagePlus miles and receive a 100% bonus when doing so.

Converting your hotel points into airline miles isn’t usually great value. However, there is 1 specific use case here that can make a lot of sense, depending on how often you use United miles.

Let’s take a look at the promotion details and then talk about how you might be able to maximize this offer.

Transfer Wyndham to United 100% Bonus Promotion

Until September 10, 2024, you can convert Wyndam Rewards points into United MileagePlus miles and enjoy 100% bonus miles — with no maximum amount of bonus miles you can earn.

There are 3 steps to complete the offer:

  1. Register for the offer with your MileagePlus number.
  2. Go to your Wyndham Rewards account and convert those points into United miles.
  3. United will then credit you with 100% bonus miles.

Once you factor in the generous 100% transfer bonus, you’ll be rewarded with 1 United MileagePlus mile for every 2.5 Wyndham Rewards points that you transfer. Typically, the transfer ratio from Wyndham to United is fairly weak at 5:1.

As part of this transfer bonus, Wyndham Rewards points can be transferred to United MileagePlus in the following amounts:

  • 6,000 Wyndham Rewards points would become 2,400 United MileagePlus miles.
  • 16,000 Wyndham Rewards points would become 6,400 United MileagePlus miles.
  • 30,000 Wyndham Rewards points would become 12,000 United MileagePlus miles.
Hot Tip:

Leveraging transfer bonuses is a great way to maximize the value of your hard-earned points and miles. Don’t forget to bookmark our updated monthly guide to the current transfer bonus promotions out there.

Is It Worth It?

Unless you have a small number of Wyndham Rewards points dwindling in your account and have no use for them, you probably don’t want to transfer your Wyndham Rewards into United miles, even during this 100% bonus offer between Wyndham and United.

Instead, the most effective way to redeem Wyndham Rewards points is by using them to book rooms at Wyndham hotels or through Wyndham’s partnership with Vacasa — a leading vacation rental company.

On the other hand, this promotion could be beneficial if you want to boost your United MileagePlus account for a future redemption or if you want to use up any unused Wyndham points.

Either way, you’ll want to crunch the numbers to make your final decision.

Final Thoughts

Even though Wyndham Rewards’ 100% transfer bonus to United makes the transfer rate better, it’s still usually better to use hotel points for stays than to convert them to airline miles. For United loyalists who want to boost their MileagePlus balance for future redemptions but have no intention of staying at Wyndham hotels, this could be a viable option to explore.

If you choose to take action on this transfer bonus offer, remember to convert your Wyndham points to United before September 10, 2024.
