Please research the facts before posting because the misinformation would lead the uninitiated to the wrong path.
My bad .... thanks for the link. It shows that the card is still great as you can transfer points 1:1 for many other airlines. Also ... to my knowledge many have special promos where you can get +25% or more for a transfer so it would come to 1:1.25

I know folks here love their SPG cards.
