Frequently asked questions about donating Delta SkyMiles
Can Delta SkyMiles be transferred?
Yes, Delta SkyMiles can be transferred from one member’s account to another’s, though this process is subject to a per-mile fee and a transaction fee, which makes it an expensive way to share miles. A more direct and impactful way to use your miles is to donate them to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF) through Delta’s SkyWish program. By donating miles to BCRF, you can help essential research by connecting breast cancer researchers worldwide to advance their study of the disease.
Is it better to gift or transfer Delta SkyMiles?
Gifting or transferring miles are both subject to fees that can significantly devalue the miles. However, for those seeking to make a charitable impact with their miles, a far more effective alternative is to donate them through Delta’s SkyWish program. This allows you to leverage the full value of the miles toward BCRF’s mission, funding essential travel for researchers and helping them connect with their peers around the globe.
Do Delta SkyMiles expire?
No, Delta SkyMiles do not expire. Unlike many other loyalty programs, a member’s miles will not be lost due to account inactivity. This makes them a perfect resource for contributing to BCRF’s mission. You can use your unused and long-accumulated miles to help lifesaving research and connect breast cancer researchers around the globe.
