You have so many options with MR points, they are good for topping up other reward programs if you are a few points short of a redemption and I've also recently discovered they are pretty good value exchanging to Jumeirah hotel points (yes, even at 15:1, do the maths, it's worth it!)

There are so may different ways to earn avios! don't waste your MRs!!!
I think I'm going to use a handful to top off my EY points balance and take advantage of the 25% bonus. That will give me enough for an upgrade to F for me and Mrs W when we go out to AUH at the end of the year.

Jumeirah points I'm not familiar with, but I'll have a read up tomorrow.

Thing is, I'm never offered transfer bonuses, and it'll cost £15 to ship the points to Mrs W, so ok factoring that in as well.
