I dont think hitting the min for them is a problem. I wanted to know, once i hit the min and get the pts, which ones i should cancel? The reason i ask is because i heard it can take months/years before a person can re apply for cards to get bonus offers.
I dont want to miss an offer because i was a fool to still continue to hold on to the card.

Any advice?
You don't want to cancel as soon as you get the bonus, that's a bad idea. Sometimes there will be bonuses like the US Air one that's going around when people don't use the card for a few months, or switching to paperless statements.

If you cancel at the end of the year I would keep the US Air until AA merger is complete for the easy 10k miles, and the CSP as an every day spend card.
