Need help in deciding if I should apply for United Plus card
I just received an offer for 20.5K miles and no annual fees for signingup.
Here's my situation, I have about 25K miles in singapore airlines.
I was wondering if there is anyway I could combine Krisflyer miles with the miles I earn on this card for a roundtrip from SFO to BOM on SingaporeAir?
I dont fly a lot, maybe 3-4 times a year cross country and one international(SFO-BOM)
I have an SPG Amex btw so transfering from there to UA is not an option('cos of the 2:1 ratio) but I can transfer to SingaporeAirlines.
So what is my best option? I'm debating between United plus and premier pass elite(i bank with citi so have "extra" 600-800 TY points/month from that)?
Thanks in advance!
