I also have this card since 2002 when it was worldperks and I used fly NW. I have not used this flexperks card for at least two years but have been paying the $49 fee bcs its my oldest card in my credit history and figure if I cancel it I will also loose 8 years of history with these folks. Does anyone know if I convert it to a no fee credit card if you loose your history with this card that might affect your credit rating in a negative way? Thanks
