yes you can book AA flights with usair miles. it has to be roundtrip but just go to the us airways sight, login, check the book with miles box and go to town.

Finally, I need an Amex. What's an acceptable offer for Amex, or should I wait until a particularly good one comes out? I've seen 50k a bunch, but I'm not sure if that's worth it.

So 50k?

Also, thanks RowdyBoyy. Can you pick me up from MHK in a few weeks?

Do you need Amex MR points or just any amex?

I guess I didn't know there were different kinds of Amex points. My work requires that I use an Amex for work expenses (plus CostCo), so I'm trying to maximize the benefit, I guess.

Redemptos will probably be used for domestic hotels and flights. Not ideal, but them's the breaks.

SPG Amex. You want a referral? PM me if you do. I'm guessing that 50k is for the gold Amex which get you MR points which are ok but not as valuable as SPG. Either would suite your purposes though.

Also, check the annual fee on that card you got the 50k offer for.

Does Chase Freedom qualify for the Chase Refer A Friend program?  https://www.chasereferafriend.com/

If so, someone that has it can PM me and I'll use their referral.

I think what my friend Mitch is trying to say is that true love is blind.

Do I really have to call US Airways on the phone if I want to book a one-way or multi-city award ticket?   :blank:

the US Air card is now 50k after one purchase. have to pay the annual fee but it's a tiny percent of the value of the miles. miles will be AA miles soon. I can refer anyone that wants to sign up and I get 5k miles so all of you PM me with your name and email and we'll all get rich on miles.

Crap... I wish I'd seen this.  SD I signed up for this and have made the purchase/payment but the 50k points aren't there.  How long should it take for these points to show up?

I've mentioned it in this thread before but one time chase called me and asked if I had charged like $40 to a "dating service" in like amsterdam or something. I said no but mentioned that was a pretty cheap date and then we laughed and they removed it from my account and sent me a new card. has to be a tough call to make in case I had made that charge.
