I'm currently PremEx w/50K EGM s for the year.

Here's the issue:

Upcoming planned trips: SFO-TPE (6455 x 2 RT in C), SFO-BOS (2709 mi x 2), SFO-ORD (1846 x 2).....for a total of 22402 miles plus a few assorted short hops SFO-LAX, SFO-SAN.

I am clearly NOT going to make 1K; therefore, what's the incentive, other than miles,to fly UA?

I am Gold on AA (still) but that airline still makes me mad over a couple of really poor service issues at DFW a few years back and I have not flown them ever since. I thought about flying CX via HKG to TPE but the whole AA service issue still bugs me and I don't think I'd find much use for the miles w/AA.

Any thoughts/recommendations?

Thanks in advance!
