I combine AA with a credit card and Delta with a credit card. I have over 400,000 miles built up to date.

I convert my American Express miles to Continental.

I have about 180,000 but never seem to use them cause I keep finding cheep fare.

I like Continental because of the the non-stop service from Newark NJ to POP and STI.

Get the Delta card, double miles and its good on Continental as well.

JDR, how many miles does it take on AA to get to POP or STI.

High season 30,000, low season 25,000 and when they run specials, only 22,500.

What Delta card?

Amex only? I'm Canadian and have to deal with Canadian banks for other cards.

American Express for Delta, 10,000 miles and no fee first year. I can't find the number in my shack at the moment.

Continental is a Delta affiliate so If I get the Delta card it will accumulate for Continental also but also gives me more options than the Continental card with Chase Mastercard or does Continental also work with Delta?

Citibank has an AA card that accrues miles. You get miles just for getting the card, then 1 mile per $1 spent. Of course, with the Amarican Airlines program, you get the miles for flying. Purchase your tickets with the citi AA card. Miles add up.

I put everything on this card... and my year isnt up yet and i have about 26,000 miles on it... its about 1500 miles to fly from NY to DR plus you get however much you spent on the flight as miles... say 300... means you got 1800 miles on your account... trying to save up enough and use it towards my Colombia trip in March

I have some that give you no fee for a year, then I cancel and move on. I haven't paid a fee in 12 years.

I use AA citibank. Just cashed in 30,000 to get my fat ass to the DR in March. 80,000 left and still growing.

Tips for AA miles.
www.rewardsnetwork.com 10 miles for every $$$ spent at resturants
www.opinionplace.com (don`t need to give them your e-mail addy) 300 miles every 14 days for taking a survey

Lets not forget on-line shopping and don`t forget to sign up for every promotion the airlines have going. I have gotton thousands of miles by mistake

Thanks for the help! I still have some checking to do as being Canadian I may have a more local, option but the AMEX card sounds good.

O.K. I had the Delta Skymiles gold card and recieved the Bonus Miles.
I terminated it and they have solicited me again. I took it but
recieved no bonus miles since its for first time card holders only.

Now they solicited me again...And now it says that the only bonus miles
I'm entitled to are the difference between the bonus miles I recieved
originally and what this offer is now 17,500.

When I called to see how many I recieved the first time the guy said it
looked like none, but he could only go back 1 year. I think he's
seeing my second card.

Question is is it possibble to score the Bonus Miles
twice???????????????????????

[psriches]

I just got that new AA card with 25k bonus miles for signing up.

Also, if you have more than one ONEPASS accounts with continental, they can be combined.

Jet Blue uses points rather than miles. 100 points per freebie. I have 2 saved up. If you book online they often give double points. I have about 50,000 aa miles saved and just went gold on their FF for the year. I get continental miles with my chase card and have 150,0000 plus I have about 30k on continental itself.

I don't really like flying out of EWR so I rarely fly continental. I just wish jet blue flew to SDQ again. May take the novia to aruba with jet blue freebies . . . . . .we'll seee. . . .

[psriches]

I try to use my miles for the longer more expensive trips. Not DR....

Another thread resurrection. I looked at the Continental World card and found it was not available to Canadians.

PS, thanks for the spell check DT.
