Our Verdict
British Airways deal is really the only one of interest, 4x Avios on all purchases (if spending more than $1,000 in a purchase) is very nice for people that value Avios. Only problem is that you have to spend that $1,000+ in a single purchase, but definitely doable for some people. The other offers suck as it’s basically an extra 0.5x mile/point per $1 spent if you spend exactly $4,000 and the earning rates on those cards suck.
