Conclusion
Le Club AccorHotels has ended the partnership with China Southern’s Sky Pearl Club without prior notification.
I don’t think that converting Le Club AccorHotels points to airline miles makes much sense unless there is a promotion for set number of miles for each stay (as there used to be). I perhaps could consider converting to Iberia Plus at 1:1 ratio and then moving them to British Airways (you can move Avios between accounts)
