Even if you're flying UA, as long as you have *G with some *A carrier, there's no point in having the MPE except for the PQD waiver. Which is why I'm getting rid of mine as soon as the AF comes due and I use the UC passes.

Funny that you mention a new roof because I actually need one, but the best company in my area doesn't take credit cards without charging a "convenience fee" of 3%. In addition, I just had one of my AC units replaced and it was the same story with them. Cash is still King in many transactions.
I still don't get it. I pay off my cards every month. I don't "need" all of this credit either. But I'd never voluntarily give it up. That serves absolutely no purpose.
