I am relatively new to the whole mileage game but due to the various strategies on this board am relatively mile-rich . I have ~100K AA miles and will soon have another 100K BA miles. My wife will have 100K BA miles as well. Now my question is I plan to purchase 4 tics and visit CA/Arizona (various places). I plan to fly to atleast 3 different places in CA/Arizona (SFO, LAX, etc). My home base is IAD/DCA. How do I best use my AA/BA miles. Also, is this a candidate for OneWorld mileage based tics? Thanks in advance for your help.
