Hey gang,

Just a curiosity. I noticed that a gold Canadian AMEX card with Accelerator Program gets 1.5 miles/Cdn dollar spent. With the exchange, this works out to 2.25 miles/US dollar (exhange of roughly 1USD=1.5Cdn). These miles can be converted to CO, Delta and Canadian. Although annual fee is very high $185Cdn ($125 USD), it is interesting.

For instance, $2000US purchase = $3000Cdn which gets 4500 points=4500 miles.

I am sure that you more than pay for it on exchange rates, if you use your card predominantly International.

Anybody's thoughts?
