CommBank Awards points can be transferred to Emirates Skywards at a rate of 4:1 meaning that every 4,000 CommBank points you transfer will give you 1,000 Emirates miles. With CommBank credit cards offering between 1X and 3X points per $1 spent, this is a very low transfer ratio that will not net you many Emirates miles.
I would only recommend going this route if you really... really need to top off your Skywards account.
