Only 2 months ago, I’ve been thinking I made a mistake closing it. The United devaluation affected my thought process because all I ever did was redeem UA miles on business class on partner airlines. Now through various activities, I am earning United miles easily which I still need to write about. In addition, I’m looking at any cards that can give me a spend bonus because I’ve been making [URL='http://saverocity.com/chasingthepoints/new-goal-chasing-the-1x/']strides chasing the 1x[/URL]. With the Chase card that I closed, the $25,000 spend I could earn the bonus 10,000 miles. Just 6 months ago, sometimes I was struggling to manufacture spend outside of Walmart, the bane of my existence. I’ve got a couple of problems: [LIST] [*]I am collecting more United miles is not having enough vacation days to redeem [*]It hasn’t been 24 months since applying for the United MileagePlus Explorer card so I wouldn’t be able to get the new 50k sign up bonus [*]I’ve already double downed into the [URL='http://saverocity.com/chasingthepoints/doubling-down-into-star-alliance/']Star Alliance[/URL] and want more diversity [/LIST] What I didn’t realize, when I redeemed the miles on United were just how expensive some of the fuel surcharges are.

But sheesh, it’s almost like buying a mileage earning economy trip on some itineraries. Either way, because I’m earning boat loads of United miles, the devaluation from 2014 is less of an impact to me and I can continue to use United to redeem.
