CSP - Transfer Partner Rate

Hi guys,

 

so far I have not found something in this forum which compares the value of UR Points for certain transfer partners like United, Southwest...

My experience so far is that I get most out of my points with United. Redemption rate is most of the times between 1.6 and 2.2 cents per point.

 

What are your experiences? When to use which transfer partner?

 

Gercredit?

BA Avios on domestic flights is supposed to be the bees knees.

That's what I've heard too.  I'd go for their card but sadly they don't transfer to United which is the airline I fly the most.

United and Hyatt seem to have highest possibility for value. BA Avios for short haul flights can be good as well. Wouldn't transfer to Marriott or Ritz under any circumstances.

Offtopic: Thanks for the clarification, but why would a BA card transfer points to United Smiley Happy

I will give BA a try in my next lookup against United. What are your redemption rates, also around 2ct per point? What is a good redemption rate? My view would be everything better than 1:1.5..

Korean air had some nice values but their points got devalued an bit so BA domestically is an good way to go, also using them at hyatt is another good opition.
