I'm only interested in miles rewards, not hotel rewards. Any suggestions which program might be best for me?
Perhaps some of the booking experts here can help:
What are the preferred / available travel dates? How flexible?
Origin options - NYC - JFK? LGA? EWR?
Destination options?
Are you willing to make a stop along the way?
