From my last two times, Avion --> BA Avios took about 2-3 business days.
Rewards program transfer times (e.g. SPG -> Aeroplan, Marriott -> SPG, Amex MR -> SPG, etc.)

I just transferred 20K. 4-5 days are not long and considered normal from SPG to Aeroplan. The AMEX to Aeroplan transfer is almost instant. The additional 30% bonus is a different rule from Aeroplan.

Data point for those that care. Transferred from Amex Membership Rewards ---> BA Avios:
Initiated transfer: Tuesday Nov 21 at 5:32 PM
Points Posted: Thursday Nov 23 at ~10PM
Worth noting that I received an email from Amex at 8pm on Nov 23 indicating that the transfer was complete. In fact, the points were NOT in my Avios account at that time. Took another 2 hours -- then I saw them in my account.

Amex MR > BA Avios - transfer time in the range of 22hr to 27hr
@bb_sam thanks for your datapoint.
I had similar results during the recent 25% MR to Avios conversion promo (ended Nov 12th), but I don't know how long it took after getting the "Transfer Complete" email from Amex, as I only checked once about an hour later, and then +6 hours later.
Here are my belated notes:
Sat Nov 11 12:30 pm - submitted transfer of Amex MR to Avios for 25% bonus
Sat Nov 11 12:30 pm - email from Amex "Membership Rewards Transfer Request Received"
Sun Nov 12 8:30 am - email from Amex "Membership Rewards Transfer Complete"
Sun Nov 12 9:45 am - checked BA.com, points not posted yet. (1.5 hrs after email)
Sun Nov 12 3:00 pm - checked BA.com, points now posted, along with "25% Bonus Offer 2017" (6.5 hrs after email)

Anyone recently booked any of the 7 day Marriott Packages with their points?
I'm debating if I should use some of my AMEX MR for this purpose and wondering what kind of deals people have found. Seems difficult to find A) A place worth staying 7 nights B) Good value for the AMEX points

I want to transfer my AMEX MR balance associated with the Business Gold.
When I try to transfer, the window shows the AMEX MR balance associated with my regular Gold (and with previous Platinum and Business Platinum); anyway to access the Business Gold MR account on the site?

Any recent transfers SPG-SPG and SPG-Aeroplan?
It looks like SPG-Aeroplan is 5 days?
Did AMEX MR->Aeroplan transfer today, it was done in an instant.

I've Googled this topic a bit but everything seems to be from 2014 or earlier. I would like to transfer my wife's AMEX membership reward points to my Aeroplan account. I am an authorized user on her account and i have a supplementary card.
It seems that as long as you were an authorized user on the account, AMEX miles could be transferred to the authorized user's Aeroplan account. What i notice now though is when you start the process where you pick the Aeroplan account, put the number of miles you want to transfer and confirm your credit card details above that it shows (in my case) my wife's first name and last name. Will this casue problems?
Has anyone been able to complete a transfer from their account to an authorized user's Aeroplan account?

Transferred from AMEX to SPG last Friday and the points appeared on Monday. Then transferred to Marriott instantly.
My SPG account also had to be verified and linked to my AMEX account. I believe that was confirmed on Saturday/Sunday.
