I have been collecting miles for about 10 years now, mainly with Skyteam and Star Alliance, but will soon be relocating to Louisiana and foresee quite some travel with One World going forward. I have about 50k miles banked with BA but am always shocked by the high fees charged for award tickets. Wondering if the time has come to switch to another program...
