Can you transfer Marriott points to anything else?

You can transfer Marriott Bonvoy® points to nearly 40 airlines, including United, Alaska, and American. For every 60,000 Marriott Bonvoy points you transfer, you'll receive a bonus 5,000 airline miles (with most airlines). The best options are often airlines that don't partner with other transferable points programs.



Marriott Bonvoy points are widely considered the most flexible "currency" in the travel world because they can be transferred to over 40 different airline partners. In 2026, the standard transfer ratio remains 3:1 for most airlines, meaning 3,000 Marriott points equal 1,000 airline miles. A major "pro-tip" is that for every 60,000 points you transfer, Marriott typically adds a 5,000-mile bonus, effectively giving you 25,000 miles for your 60,000 points. Partner airlines include major carriers like United (which offers a special 10,000-mile bonus for every 60k transferred), American, Delta, Emirates, British Airways, and even niche partners like Alaska Airlines and ANA. Beyond airlines, you can transfer Marriott points to MGM Rewards for use in Las Vegas or "share" them with other Marriott Bonvoy members for free (up to 100,000 points per year). You can also use "Marriott Bonvoy Moments" to bid on exclusive experiences like VIP concert tickets or culinary tours, though transferring to high-value airline miles is generally considered the best way to maximize the value of your points for international travel.
