If you don't know what you need, call your local orthodox broker.
That is better than just parking it in aero plan or sq for now?

Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

Always. I wouldn't trust amex with the time of day, let alone my hard earned points.

"Behind your plan there's aeroplan"
thanks, since everyone is saying don't trust amex with my points!
what would give me the most flexibility to travel to EY? it seems like from dans Israel chart that KLM is the cheapest, is that true? is there a reason not to park them there, I know they have to be used within 20 months

For economy, cash is generally the cheapest. If you don't use it within 20 months, it generates interest instead of expiring.

Thank you all for your help, I just transferred everything to SQ, it says it transferred, I guess we will see what happens.

You'll get the bonus with another invite of no Lang . You can have multiple plats opened at same time

what's the best way going forward after getting a negative MR balance? to close all MR cards and start over or to wait it out?
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.

well I am @ -200,000.....
the question is if waiting it out could be an option, as it was when they took back points that they mistakenly added last December (after I transferred it out....) but after a month or two they readjusted my account to 0 .

If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.
