    I believe that you can. I've never done it since I won't use miles at $.01 - they're too hard to accumulate nowadays.

    I'd save those miles for an emergency as you're apparently doing.

    I'll let you know how things work. Our miles are from my old biz flts and inherited ones when parent passed and all the ones accumulated w/purchases on cards, etc

    I spoke with 5 different Diamond Desk reps and I'm not happy with the answers I got. None of the reps were from Chisolm or CVG which are the only places I really trust for answers to out of the ordinary questions. In any case, all 5 said no to upgrading with miles. I asked the question, not in general terms but specifically in reference to a FCFL reservation that I have booked.

    I have been able to upgrade them for cash, both domestic and international. The only international I did was at the gate for my wife and took a while for the re-issue desk to figure out the fare. In all cases, doing them for cash, change fees were waived (which is pretty standard on a buy up). I didn't ask about "Pay With Miles" since you have to be an AMEX Delta cardholder, Gold, Platinum or Reserve, to do those.
