You might consider changing your earning preference to points, and when you really need the miles, convert your points to miles at the established rates, although it is a better use of points to use points for hotel stays.
Is it not always better to collect airline miles?
- Online booking: 2'000
- 70 € x 20: 1'400
= Total: 3'400 Points
versus
- 1'000 bmi miles
In my opinion, it makes only sense to collect (bmi) airline miles. Am I wrong?
