Er I wasn't thinking.
Actually, I'd thought the fee would only be 1%.
So I guess it's a matter of whether 10,000 MQM is worth that 2.49% fee, which would be $1100-1200.
Or it would be 40,000 SPG points, which could be 50k SkyMiles.
I guess the best deal would be the 10,000 MQM, which you'd get in addition to the 45k miles, for the $45k in charges.
SPG doesn't have a threshold bonus like SkyMiles Amex Platinum?
