Looks like the 30,000 mile sign-up offer is about as good as it gets on AS. And I could use an AS card for my families traveling. However, does the following make sense?
Sign up for Virgin 90k points card (we're getting ready to start a remodel so $12k will be easy to spend in 6 months) -> transfer those 90k points to AS at 1:1.3 -> end up with 117k AS miles -> then also sign up for AS card for the benefits, even if we don't get the 30k miles as well?
Likely to work out?
