Reinstating forfeited miles
I rarely fly USAir anymore, and due to laziness and procrastination lost my 35K miles. I can get them reinstated by either paying $200 (no) or applying for a USAir credit card in the next year. Given the previous amount of credit card churning I've done in the past year, I'd rather not take another hit on my credit report. Colleagues of mine who fly USAir say that availability for award flight is scarce. Should I even bother??
