That means 10,000 Amex Membership Rewards points become 10,000 SkyMiles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the transfer ratio is only the starting point. You also need to consider the transfer fee, award availability, <a href=\"https:\/\/flightpoints.com\/blogs\/fixed-vs-dynamic-award-pricing-how-award-costs-really-work\/\">dynamic pricing<\/a>, and whether a SkyTeam partner provides another way to book the same flight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this guide, we will explain how to transfer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.americanexpress.com\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.americanexpress.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amex points<\/a> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.delta.com\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.delta.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Delta<\/a>, what the transfer costs, and how to compare your redemption options before moving points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Confirm Delta award availability before transferring Membership Rewards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amex currently transfers to Delta at 1:1 for eligible U.S. accounts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delta award pricing is dynamic and can vary substantially by date.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>U.S. transfers incur an excise tax offset fee.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Compare Delta with SkyTeam partner programs before committing your points.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-do-amex-points-to-delta-transfers-work\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Do Amex Points to Delta Transfers Work?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For eligible U.S. American Express accounts, Amex Membership Rewards to Delta transfers at a 1:1 ratio. Transfers have a 1,000-point minimum and must be made in 1,000-point increments. Amex states that transfers can take up to 48 hours, although Flightpoints notes that they are typically much faster.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<style>\n.fp-table-wrap{\n    width:100%;\n    max-width:100%;\n

This is a general valuation range rather than a guaranteed redemption value, since actual value varies by itinerary, award price, and cash fare.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a deeper explanation, the <a href=\"https:\/\/flightpoints.com\/blogs\/how-dynamic-pricing-affects-airline-redemptions\/\">Flightpoints guide to dynamic airline pricing<\/a> explains why award prices can fluctuate even when the route remains unchanged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- FlightPoints Instant Alert Banner -->\n\n<div style=\"\nmax-width:760px;\nmargin:24px auto;\npadding:26px 22px;\nbackground:#E2ECFF;\nborder:2px solid #C8DAFF;\nborder-radius:20px;\ntext-align:center;\nfont-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\nbox-shadow:0 10px 28px rgba(37,99,235,.08);\n\">\n\n    <!-- Bell Icon -->\n    <div style=\"\n    position:relative;\n    width:76px;\n    height:76px;\n    margin:0 auto 12px;\n    \">\n\n        <div style=\"\n        position:absolute;\n        inset:0;\n        border:2px solid #BFD4FF;\n        border-radius:50%;\n        \"><\/div>\n\n        <div style=\"\n        position:absolute;\n        inset:7px;\n        border:2px solid #D7E5FF;\n        border-radius:50%;\n        \"><\/div>\n\n        <div style=\"\n        position:absolute;\n        left:50%;\n        top:50%;\n        transform:translate(-50%,-50%);\n        width:40px;\n        height:40px;\n        border-radius:50%;\n        background:#F8FBFF;\n        display:flex;\n        align-items:center;\n        justify-content:center;\n        font-size:22px;\n        \">\n            \ud83d\udd14\n        <\/div>\n\n    <\/div>\n\n    <!-- Heading -->\n    <div style=\"\n    font-size:24px;\n    font-weight:700;\n    color:#1E2A47;\n    line-height:1.3;\n    max-width:580px;\n    margin:0 auto 12px;\n    \">\n        Be First to Know When Award Seats Open\n    <\/div>\n\n    <!-- Description -->\n    <div style=\"\n    font-size:15px;\n    color:#5F6F89;\n    line-height:1.7;\n    max-width:560px;\n    margin:0 auto 22px;\n    \">\n        Create an Instant Alert and receive a notification the moment your preferred award flight becomes available.\n    <\/div>\n\n    <!-- CTA -->\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/flightpoints.com\/alerts\/create?utm_source=blog&#038;utm_medium=internal&#038;utm_campaign=create_alert\" style=\"\n       display:inline-block;\n       background:#2563EB;\n       color:#FFFFFF;\n       text-decoration:none;\n       padding:11px 22px;\n       border-radius:8px;\n       font-size:14px;\n       font-weight:600;\n       box-shadow:0 4px 10px rgba(37,99,235,.20);\n       \">\n        Create Alert\n    <\/a>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<style>\n\n\/* Responsive *\/\n\n@media (max-width:768px){\n\ndiv[style*=\"max-width:760px\"]{\n    padding:22px 18px !important;\n}\n\ndiv[style*=\"font-size:24px\"]{\n    font-size:20px !important;\n    line-height:1.3 !important;\n}\n\ndiv[style*=\"font-size:15px\"]{\n    font-size:14px !important;\n}\n\na[href*=\"flightpoints.com\/alerts\/create\"]{\n    padding:10px 18px !important;\n    font-size:13px !important;\n}\n\n}\n\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"should-you-transfer-amex-points-directly-to-delta\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Should You Transfer Amex Points Directly to Delta?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not always.
