The CSR is the best generally. If you want more lounge access then the Amex platinum is pretty unbeatable. In terms of points, you cant really beat the CSR other than flights booked directly with the airline which is slightly better with the Platinum.

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
