More info:

Just signed up for CreditKarma.com.
Credit score is very good.
1 hard inquiry in the past 2 years for Schwab debit card (2 days ago).
Preferred airline: DFW Airport/Love Field (Dallas)
Plan to travel for an entire year in 6 months. Destinations include South/Central America, Southeast Asia, India.
School does not charge a penalty for credit card payment of tuition.


IncaTrails - that sounds like a very good option!! But what is "Transfer to SQ and you could be in Suites?" I have no desire to earn points for hotels. Only for plane tickets.

Thanks for the help!!!
If you're willing to travel in Coach to South and Central America, redeeming BA Avios on AA nonstops from DFW can provide excellent value. Look at the Amex PRG card; the Chase BA Visa; and the Chase Sapphire Preferred card. All can earn BA Avios -- either directly or by point transfers.

See the FT Amex and FT Chase forums for discussion of current bonus opportunities.
