Has anyone done a detailed comparison of routes that are better on VA than EY miles? If not I might look at doing so before the bonus ends

Thanks. I probably wouldn't have enough for long haul J anyway (on approx 130k FB) so might hold on and look at VA Dom J.There are several domestic VA Y&J routes where the redemption bands favour using EY miles.
EY miles are usually less valuable than VA (redeeming either on VA or SQ) redeeming internationally in any cabin class

I wish my Flybuys account would go from 70023 to 23 but it is not happening.
Got an email yesterday for 15% bonus transferring to Velocity for the next 48 hours.So changed my linked account from mrsdrron to my Velocity account.
But last night and now it will not let me transfer.Hit the transfer now button and it goes back to the request page and my points balance is unchanged.
I had a problem originally because the names on my accounts were slightly different. Corrected that on my flybuys account and all is good now.
