Can book a flight for 16,500 Avios or 22,000 AAdvantage. Assuming they’re relatively close in value, the answer is obvious. New to Avios so wanted to ask. Thank you.
It depends on what you want to book. AA has less value per point on AA, and the same for BA, but the airlines allow a lot more booking with their own currency, instead of requiring a fare bucket to be available for partner bookings.
