Atlanta new route no luck I am down to SFO and LAX and ORD I will then need to spend miles to get there. I do have reservations using miles on United. I get a credit card every quarter as does my wife with no annual fee. We get 120,000 miles per year on United,with no fee's. Why doesn't everybody do this? It is beyond me. Talked to a credit friend he said tons of cards does not hurt your credit score. I have tons of cards for different deals and keep getting them.
