What was the question? Oh yes, *A RTW or DONE4.
And does Shakespeare have an opinion? Ah yes, from the two Gentlemen of Verona "Madam, this service I have done four you" |

I have about 160k miles on UA after blowing 160k this summer to see the WC in MUC. I could most likely get to 400k by Sep 08, based on current travels and CC spending. With that award, I can put together a trip like this:
SEA-NRT-ICN-SIN(side trip to AKL/SYD using AS award on CX)-BKK-xSIN-FRA-JNB-GRU-IAD-SEA. = 33.5k miles Since you'll need to find award seats on each of your flights, it's a pretty lousy deal if you're trying to book ahead for peace of mind and actually travel close to a full year. Might be worth it if you were going to travel for 6mo... |

*A still has the nicest choices in that regard with SQ and others.

IMO *A has more quality top notch airlines (SQ, NZ, TG, NH, OZ) than OW...

Still better than AY, AA, QF, IB, LAN that OW has to offer.
