Looking for suggestions on sweet spots for redemptions. I live in a podunk area where Delta has most of the gates, and I'm not sure it makes sense to add another SkyTeam program to my roster. Have about 50K United miles that are hard to use- saver availability is not great on the barbie jets that use around here if you don't have status. About 8K in a BA household account as my Oneworld partner, and 15K in WN points.

No definite plans for any of the above program participants (next few flights are on Delta) and I'm okay with flying coach rather than chasing more aspirational awards. So I'm wondering if Alaska is going to stay everyone's friend long enough for me to accrue anything meaningful in that program, or if American has the same sort of annoyingly low saver inventory on regional jets that United does of if I should figure out how to uncouple the BA Avios and somehow get them over to Iberia (not much value there with BA save for a multicity vacation Somewhere Else since the per segment thing burns those of us on the spoke) or if Southwest's rumored IT upgrades will mean I won't get so many 'you can't get there from here' messages when you're starting at an outstation....

Just spitballing a little here and trying to find value on routes out of podunk.
