I did a search and found a thread from 2010, but I just want to make sure that I'm understanding this correctly.
Background: I want to gift my brother 20k points for a two zone roommette award.
What I've found: This will cost me 200$ as Amtrak charges 10$ per 1k points transferred.
Workaround: I book the ticket for him. Same effect, but 0$ in fees instead of 200$
This all seems rather silly to me, so I figured I'd check to make sure I've understood correctly, and not missed something.
