I'm still hesitant to do the airline ones because 1) the hotel ones thus far haven't been smooth and 2) I don't fly much and when I do, I get the most convenient flight to my travel plans regardless (not irregardless) of price. I know you guys have said that AA miles can be used for BA and other section 17 foreigner flights, but they don't help at all when your choice is a nearly free AA flight that'll eff up a schedule for a day vs. a $300 Delta/Continental/Whatever flight that's convenient, do they?
Just discovering this thread and its rough ridin' amazing. I have been in this thread literally for three and a half hours.
My beef is this, when I travel domestically (my number of stamps on my passport
) my travel is dictated by airline. I really only fly AirTran, Jet Blue, and United if absolutely necessary and they all seem to have really shitty bonus programs for their credit cards. I refuse to fly AA, USAirways, Delta, and Continental. They are all shitty airlines that have mumped me over multiple times, but they have the best points programs, sucks bros, sucks.
