we use the TD Inifinte visa card - points on spend and then the choice to either book through them (which is actually Expedia) or book yourself and claim back the money. They've been very helpful for us and the card fee is waved if you talk nicely to your bank manager / keep a minimum amount in your account

It is called Howard's and I've noticed when stuck in traffic in that area.

Rather this than be stuck with one carrier and then have to fork out the additional fees.

I do still have a BA Amex mainly for upgrades using miles.
