I'm pretty happy with airmiles, but I don't use it for flights (for the reasons you have already stated). I've always used mine for goods, and mostly stuff I was going to buy anyways. In the last 2 years I've got a Dyson, a Keurig coffee maker, various ski lift tickets, and an autographed jersey.
The cashback cards are nice, due to it actually being cash. However I find the percentages to be so low.
The new westjet card looks pretty decent IMO. Thinking of trading the airmiles card in for that.
