Hi, I'm new to this site, and so glad someone tipped me off to it! Anyway, I have several questions:

I mostly fly UA out of BWI. Currently I have about 18K miles because I just used 120K miles for 2 tkts to SE Asia. I'm a premier member,and hoping to make premier executive status this year. (I've about 35K qualifying miles this year, and travel just about every other week for work.) I also have a UA credit card, and frequently use it for idine for UA miles.

I almost never fly NWA. But, I have about 51K miles on them. I also have a NWA credit card, which I plan to cancel by August to avoid paying another fee.

So, here's my question: Since I travel often for work, I put my hotel and other bills on a credit card and get reinbursed. Needless to say, I have fairly large monthly bills. Should I concentrate on getting the NW miles (say, shooting for 60k so I can get 2 tkts to Caribbean, or one to Asia), or should I just be happy with the 50K, and continue concentrating on UA?

Also, when is SE Asia, I will be flying Vietnam Airlines w/in the country, and Bangkok Air for regional trips. Does these airlines partner with any US carriers?

Many thanks, Ellen
