Can Delta PC to Starwood?

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone.

Ive been hearing how SPG has some of the pest redemption rates for points; 2.3 cents a point I believe. I was wondering if Delta gold can change to SPG in the first year of cardmembership. If so, I know Amex doesnt allow you to change to a more expensive card in the first 12 months but Delta carries a $95 annual fee. What COnfuses me is its free the first year so will they still change?

Thanks

I believe Delta can PC into Starwood but I believe that is only after 1 year... if you keep the Delta free for first year and then when annual fee bills you call and PC they will refund your annual fee for the old card (in this case the Delta)
