Much like Craigslist, we match individuals together to work out the details of their swap. Local swaps are preferable. If you are swapping miles and need assurance that you receive your goods or services, you can always re-deposit miles back into your account if you don’t get exactly what you bargained for.
Frequent Flyer programs have checks and balances that keep both account holder and the individual transferring the miles accountable. Besides the benefits of securing a trip with advance notice, with several weeks or months before travel, frequent flyers can ensure they receive the agreed to goods or services of their swap. |
