HA redemption on partners are supposed to be bad. Why not just apply for VA cards if u will like VA redemption?

I remember reading somewhere about fuel surcharge on VA miles. Not too familiar with HA or VA miles.

Planning to do 2x2 apps for these cards netting 140K HA miles.
How usable are these miles for Virgin Atlantic redemption? I am mostly looking at availability for SFO-LHR or SFO-LHR-DEL (Economy/Business). Anyway to check mock availability? You would pay a very large cash outlay on the VS flight redemption on your planned route due to the YQ Virgin charges. |

Most people do this is not for the flight redemption... because it is not a good value.

My current plan is to churn these each at least 4 times, getting 280k miles at a minimum and giving me two Virgin Atlantic Upper Class tickets to anywhere VS serves. Any leftover miles will go to HH. Might do it one less time depending on if I want to transfer some AMEX MR points.
Or cancel card 1 AND then apply for card 2 after 90 days? |

hi, sorry to bother as i'm new to this, but can you explain this? I've been saving my HA miles in order to get an upper class seat on VA for my wife and myself from SFO to as far as we can go (i.e. DEL). for HA miles, at least, this requires fewer award miles than Delta.
Also the HA program rules on the airline's own website regarding redemption should also give you the answers. |
are these cards churnable a la other b of a cards?

Which card, BoH or BoA, gives lesser miles if you do not get the Signature but the Platinum card?

Does B of A allow limit re-allocations when it comes to establish new card limits? Thanks.

Today, View from the Wing made a post (via MileValue) on redeeming award tickets on Virgin Atlantic without fuel surcharges.

Anyone has first-hand experience with redeeming HA miles on Virgin Atlantic?
The "VFTW" blog seems to say no fuel surcharges. Happy advised otherwise. No fuel-surcharge + decent availability (I see multiple days for SFO-LHR in august on VS site) would make getting HA miles really valuable. |
