How about Venture X? For every $ you spend in Jpn, it will get you 50% more JAL miles vs the AS miles you will earn on AS card. I think my math is right. Plus you have the freedom to choose other transfer partners.
I read the Atmos Summit Card gave 3x points for every dollar spent abroad. How is the Venture X a better deal? Of course this makes sense in case I can redeem AS miles on JAL, but I still cant find the way.
