Have there been better offers for AMEX to BA transfers that would make it worthwhile to hold off?

They also had a 40% at some point since then, but I dunno if these better offers will be back soon, maybe they're testing the waters.

Does this make paying amex 2.5CPM is the cheapest way to obtain BA miles on short notice?

2.5cpp (MR point), effectively 1.93cpm for BA. For short haul flights even $2cpm or more could still be a bargain.

That's not a reason not to try and get them for less than that

Correct. I initially posted to correct you, that it's 2.5cpp, not 2.5cpm. I then added that even at those prices it's still significantly cheaper than revenue tickets at times.

Yeah I realized that but wasnt as patient as you to calculate how much that comes out per BA mile. Thanks!

Of those you listed AMEX MR only transfers to DL.

Lucky for you they're running a 30% rebate promo now.
