For this analysis, I'm thinking specifically about transfer to airlines. The 6 pts would transfer to airlines for 2 miles v. the 3 UR pts would be 1:1.
Except you’re limited to UR’s airline transfer partners which has been recently devalued with the departure of Korean Airline. With the departure of Korean, I’ll be likely to spend more on spg cards.
