is Altitude Black still the best for Asia Miles points?

[derrick]

Hi all,

looks like the recent devaluing of points makes me rethink whether to keep this card or not.

now looks like the Altitude Black Amex gets 1$ to 1.2 Asia Miles. down from 1 to 1.5

which I think is still the best Asia Miles earning card out there. Visa Prestige is 1 to 1 i believe.

does anyone know if there's a better earn rate card for Asia Miles? (I only fly Cathay so Asia miles is important to me)

thanks

Amex Explorer is better with 1.5 Asia Miles per $1 with a large sign up bonus currently

Agree. The new American Express Explorer card with 110000 bonus points is the best earning Amex points for Asia Miles right now.

Amex Plat Edge ( Coles, Woolies, IGA) $1.00 = 3 Asia Miles ( or do i have something wrong there?)

Amex Business Accelerator 2 Asia/$ but capped
Diners 1.8 Asia/$ via SPG where accepted

Only applies to the supermarket spend though with judicious use of giftcards you can put a lot through the supermarket

What a great idea! I had never thought of this before and feel a bit silly now.

Local champion status at Coles can up the earn too.
Wish cards mean LC not so helpful for WW
