Wasn't sure whether this was better in the Amex thread or on it's own.
At the moment i have around 80k Amex points which should get me a decent way towards some nice free flights once i get a new signup bonus for the BA/Virgin credit card. However i'm struggling to decide which basket to stick my pointy eggs in.
Ideally i'd wait to decide on flights and then do it, however i'm looking to switch my credit card for one which offers a companion voucher to maximise the benefit and so need to make a choice now.
Being sad i set up a bit of a pros and cons list. The main factors being Virgin have more flights from Manchester and i believe you can use points on any flights whereas BA allow you to use the companion voucher for Business/First flights but have limited availability.
There are other pros/cons but the above are my main factor.
Anyone (not based in London) had similar internal debates and where did you decide?
