Thanks for the advice. I'm pretty much sold on the AA programme. AS does look interesting. Not one I had considered before, but looks ok. Thanks for that one. I know 100% on discount eco is very rare. I agree that churning and burning is now the way to go. I had stockpile miles in the past, but I now understand the "bird in the hand" concept.
