Thanks for the tip. I did a search for MAD and it would be double what flying into FRA costs - I did another search today and after 8.17, flights drop about half to 537 to FRA from a local airport that flies into PHL. So, I think my best bet is FRA and then the train or whatever I can find on BA or Lufthansa.
What is "GoEnvoy"?
And to get preferred status, if I were to say, open a Visa Signature card and if I were to pay my AmEx Gold 25,000, would I be given preferred status? And when is that given out? Is it actually worth it? I rarely fly US Air like I said and don't plan on flying with them again after I use this voucher.
And one other thing, why is it cheaper flying out of another airport into a hub like PHL rather than flying right out of a hub, say PHL? PHL->FRA is ~650 whereas ALB->PHL->FRA is 539.
