I'm at SPG > UR > TYP > MR. I have 114k MR from the Plat signup, spend, and the 10k for enrolling in pay over time. I have no idea how to use them. My TYP I at least find a good value redeeming for AA flights at 1.6c.

Part of the problem I guess is flying out of SBA. We only have UA, AA, Alaska, and I'd really prefer not driving to LAX. That also adds a hop to any AA flight unless I want to go to PHX or DFW as my destination, because those are the only two places AA flies from here. So that makes BA transfers much less useful.

I really just have no idea how to redeem my MR right now.
