starwood or not?

[jo]

I have read about using starwood card for airmiles from this site and a couple of other sites. Does anyone have experience with this? any thoughts and opinions?

I am presently a frequent flyer member of UA, Continental and US Airways though I have been travelling less frequently. Presently have the Amex Gold Card. Was wondering if I should get the starwood card, which has lower annual fee?

thanks

I moved from Germany years ago. I used the Starwood credit card because I can transfer points to Lufthansa miles (one for one ratio). You can also transfer points to continental, us airways and united miles (I believe)..

got the starwood and also kept my amex gold. I will report on these cards in the next few months.

This is the first time I hear about Starwood card! When I had my AMEX cl***ic, I transfered my points to American Airlines and United Airlines. But now I only have AMex Blue, and keep earning points with traveling.

Is the Starwood card one that is specifically geared toward frequent flyers? How does it work?
