Rewards Program Reviews

I came across this review and thought it would be useful for anyone trying to decide on where to focus their efforts on building status, miles, etc. I haven't seen it posted elsewhere (did I miss it?).

If this is a redundant posting then please forgive me. I did search through the forums before posting this but didn't find it mentioned.

It's a review of a wide variety of rewards programs that grades all of them on a scale of 1-10 based on numerous criteria. The nice feature of this breakdown is that it separates the site's reviews and the audience's reviews into separate groups.

Hope it proves useful to you!

One thing I would like to see in these types of reviews is a breakout between redemption options for elites, and for non-elites.

These types of tables drive me nuts... I like spreadsheets so I can sort & manipulate the data. In case anyone else does too, I made a quick extract in Google Docs. You can get to it here.

Interesting to me... the top rated programs (overall score) seem to be:
  • Star Alliance
  • oneworld
  • Marriott Rewards
  • American AAdvantage
  • Aeroplan
  • Continental OnePass
  • United MileagePlus

Anyone surprised? It will be interesting to see how this compares to the 2012 FT awards poll!
