Too many options!
My wife and I earned 150k MR points last year with targeted sign-up for the Amex Open Business Gold Cards. I plan to cancel the cards before 6/2012 to avoid the annual fee.

First, the question: if I open a Premier Rewards Gold with the 25,000 MR sign-up bonus, does this prevent me from losing the 150k MR points when I cancel the Amex Business Gold Card?

Second, which of the options below do you recommend in my situation given that I live in LAX area and currently has 400k BA points and 120k US Airway points and 200k Chase UR points (I also have two boys and family trip would need to include 4 tickets):

1. Transfer to BA with 50% bonus

2. Transfer to SPG, then to US Airways to diversify my points into US Airways (How useful is US Airway points to someone living in LAX?)

Thanks.
