Last Updated 2023-06-21 By R.Flowers III

Marriott Bonvoy Points can be transferred to over 30 travel partners. This is mostly at a 3:1 ratio meaning that 3,000 points can be converted to 1,000 miles or points with select partners.

On top of that excellent ratio, Marriott will throw in a bonus 15,000 points for every 60,000 block of Marriott Bonvoy Points you transfer in a single transaction which is equal to a bonus 5,000 airline miles. So all-in-all, a 60,000-point transfer would net you 25,000 airline miles which is great!

Here's the full list of Marriott transfer partners:

Do note that the 5,000 bonus miles does not apply to American Airlines, Avianca LifeMiles, Delta SkyMiles, and Korean Air SKYPASS.

Are Transferring Points Worth It?

In my opinion, Marriott is one of the only hotel rewards program in which transferring Marriott Bonvoy Points can still bring you great value without totally nuking the value. This is due to the excellent 3:1 ratio along with the bonus you earn from transferring 60,000 points at a time.

With the 10X base earning rates, 5X with the Marriott Bonvoy credit cards, and up to 75% bonus you can earn with elite status, you can max out around 20 to 23 Marriott Bonvoy Points per US$1/CA$1 spent. This equates to over 7 airline miles per US$1/CA$1 spent with Marriott which is pretty unbeatable.
