Just received my 75k MR points with the recent Amex Gold offer and could possibily get another 25k MR before the end of month.

Which would you convert 75k (maybe 100k) MR points to.

1)Delta have a bonus for 50% on MR points
BA also have the same bonus until end of this month
CO have no bonus offer yet but their partnership with Amex ends in Sept.

2)I believe all 3 (above) have free stopovers so they are equal at least on that issue.

3)I frequently fly to Asia the most and sometimes to Europe. I rarely fly domestic. My hometown is NYC.

4)My "feelings" right now lean toward CO at this moment even with no bonus for conversion as my biggest peeve about the whole FF programs is to fly as free from any fees as possible and to have as many available seats for FF offer by airlines.


Delta have a great bonus but heard their FF program is not the best as seats are not always available. Also heard their booking fees are higher, also need higher miles usage to get FF seats, and also charges the dreaded "fuel surcharge" to Asia or Europe.

BA also have a great bonus conversion until end of month but heard their "fuel surcharges" to Asia or Europe is very high, which is why I may not consider this for now.

CO (never flown them before) but heard they have more seats available for travel to Asia or Europe as their alliances with other airlines are greater. Also they have very low fees for booking and lower "fuel surcharges" to Asia.

So what do all of you think I should do?

Thanks
