[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Points are about flexibility--dates, layovers, locations. If you want this specific date to this specific location at this specific hotel, you're going to be disappointed. [/quote] Only true if you don’t have reasonable mileage and CC point systems. We use a combination of Delta miles, Citi prestige, and Amex platinum. Hasn’t been a problem to book flatbed business to Hawaii twice, Tahiti once, and Europe a few times in the past 8 years or so. [/quote] And? Anyone can book reward flights. What you're leaving out is 1) how many points the flights required and 2) taxes and fees and 3) the direct equivalent if paying cash. I will accept business class on points can be a deal, paying the points+taxes equivalent of, say, $1500 for a ticket that would cost $3k in cash. But you're still paying $1500 while the same airline has direct economy seats for $600. [/quote]
