This is the only card I use for personal expenses especially when travel overseas. The benefit of no FTF and higher rate of cash back for premier customer are equally important to me.
I havn't tried to use BOA travel service yet. Even with the bonus point, I don't think it will exceed the return from the airline's credit card. At least this is my situation - majority of my flight will be on UA so a $1,000 ticket purchase will bring me 3,000 miles if I use a UA/chase card, or $41.25 cash back for using BOA card. However, based on current UA MP program rules, $41.25 won't be enough to buy 3,000 miles.
