United and Continental Allow You to Combine Miles and Qualifying Activity

Gary at View From the Wing reports that United Mileage Plus and Continental OnePass are now allowing you transfer mileage between the 2 programs as well as combine your elite qualifying activity.  You can transfer miles in 1,000 mile increments once per 24 hour period.  Nothing I can add to Gary’s always excellent analysis except that I just moved a few stray Continental miles over to my United account, and the transfer was instantaneous.  Here’s a link to the elite combination page.  And another link to the mileage transfer page.
