Peter, I am on an upgraded USAirways next week for the VJ7 cruise, and don't have another scheduled until November 2004 (MINT) upgraded with points. My next cruises are not scheduled until June 2005 and November 2005. I think I will just wait, like you said. No need to transfer my points from Amex if they can't be retrieved.

So, you think if they are going out of business, they will now merge or whatever with United?
