Value of Airmiles

Does anyone have any rough idea of what an airmile is worth in terms of money (£/p)???

I am trying to choose between a cashback credit card and a Airmiles credit card. It would be really good to have a rough idea of how much an airmile is worth to decide which card provides better value.

  • I don't know the exact value but the cashback card is almost certainly better. Is it an actual 'Airmiles' card (i.e. with Lloyds or whoever does them now) or is it an airline-specific one? If the former it's not worth it, but if you're likely to travel to an obscure destination, something like the bmi/StarAlliance 'diamond club' (i.e. the airline's airmiles programme) card may be worth getting.
