I round up and assume a 1% fee all around (1% of 10k is $100 so I'm close)
That's really not bad fee wise for loading 10k. Might stick to RedBird as long as I can and then might swing over to AFT....

OR...
Is it possibly smart to do AFT, in addition to RedBird? I guess it depends on how much minimum spending or MS I need to rack up points for cards, ya?
