For this purpose it's SPG all the way. SPG gives you a tremendous amount of flexibility between airlines and alliances for travel all of the world. I love Marriott and Priority Club for hotel stays but SPG (in large part b/c of the SPG Amex program) is where my wife and I concentrate all of our credit cad spending. The value of an option is very high.
