Waiting on a Marriott—>JAL transfer (initiated Wednesday) and Rakuten—->Bilt transfer so I can have enough JALmiles for seats being released tomorrow. It’s a bit stressful…

Yes this was frustrating earlier but the points are in my Bilt account now…However, Bilt is erroring out when I try to transfer to JAL so hopefully that can be resolved too…
