[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]definitely use one of the points websites--I like point.me. I recently got flights to london non stop for about 12k points each way by doing a kind of work around, instead of using points directly on the airline or credit card sites where it was like 40k points. I search them for business class deals as well--last year DH and I went to the dolonites, business there and economy plus back for 100k points total, non stop to venice, in july.

as to how i would spend? We have a list of places to go. I kind of search for the time period and places I'm interested in and see what's available. We have a lot of places on our list, japan, turkey, argentina, vietnam/thailand, etc. I would use the points to fly business long haul. [/quote]

NP here. I have $1M amex points! Not kidding. I want to use for long haul flights/upgrades. Kids want to go to Australia, Japan, Thailand, ect. I'm in! But we are 4. So do you get regular flights with points and then upgrades with cash? [/quote]

The play is finding saver business awards, but finding 4 roundtrip is going to be very very difficult.  And the prices to those locations are around 100-120k/each way.  I just booked 2 Singapore Airlines biz awards to Tokyo for 125k/person each way.  But only 2 were available at that price point.[/quote]

I'm not opposed to kids being in coach. They are 16 and 13 now and this would be next summer so 17 and 14. They should be fine. [/quote]
