Don’t convert until you have a specific redemption in mind. Protects you against devaluations. But if you’re asking which programs are best transfer partners, check BA, Aeroplan, and Singapore, depending on your vacation goals, of course

I converted a lot of Avios, since they have really great redemptions on short haul flights. It helped a lot for various hops around Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Vietnam.
