Reply To: Suggestions for an alternative program to Avios?

QR redemptions in Business or 1st are good value so Qatar Priv Club would be my first port or call and link to your BA account for flexibility – and you can use AVIOS collected with your branded cards or just transfer from your AMEX MRs instantly – as you can do to Emirates or Etihad but the cost of their redemptions is now sky high so I would stick with the AVIOS and the AMEX MRs personally so you have choices.

I like the BA AMEX card for 1.5 AVIOS per £ but I would never EVER fly with BA and I just use on Qatar. If I want another carrier I stick it on AMEX Gold.
