Also curious what the play is. I haven't used the KE redemption, and Amex Platinum to United is a pain. That said, assuming all else equal I think I'd prefer the Amex...

The thing is i eat out 99% of the time, and amex dining point rewards arent the greatest. but boy, their airline partners are superior.

For dining points the Amex preferred gold is better than the platinum
