My award travel will be on AA, is it a big difference to redeem AA on AA rather than Asiamiles on AA?
With AA miles you won't be paying fuel surcharges on awards except when flying BA on the award.

Asia miles - has double miles bonus going on right now
AA - only requires 25k miles for gold (but need 4 segments on AA metal). 1.5x miles for business class??. Could potentially do an Elite Status Challenge.

Thanks for your help!
Use CP.

Ended up going with AA. Got AA Gold which is pretty useless but won't pay fuel surcharges on award redemption.
Thanks all!
