The more rewards program from what I can tell stinks really bad. On other cards I can fly from Reno to Hawaii for 40k points. Southwest 104k.
I used to fly to Ft. Lauderdale for 19200 points now 32K
What a ripoff.
My AA card let me fly around the world for 75K points. Reno to Rome 175K
Are they kidding?

I love all the comments like, "I am going to sell all my stock." "I will never fly with them again." "I will have to dust off my United card."
Seriously? Most of the complaints seem to be those who spend 600-1000 for 8 tickets and then want a 400 ticket for free. It was good while it lasted, but really your going to run off ina a huff?
Please do then there will be less of your type to sit next too on the plane.
True the new program was great, but clearly they cannot keep giving away based on short flyers. If they raised the short flight prices to compensate and kept the program you would complain about that too.
Get a Chase Visa Card charge everything and then get your tickets easy as that. I fly shorter routes so less points to be used. I like the new program

I keep hearing knowone likes the new system.
I love it. I get the chance to fly international?
Yes the old system was great but they cannot afford it or choose not too. You have options deal with it or look at other programs.

Read all of the details or call them. Once I understood it I felt it was better for Visa holders, but not as good for short distance travelers.
Also, the international flights interest me, but there are no details on how many points are needed for a fight or the convertion rate.
