发帖数: 194 | 3 Thanks.
1) Would you please recommend cheaper option (Other airlines?), I am booking
for 1/26 ~ 2/4.
2) When you prefer paying $539 rather than 45K + $87, do you think the 45K +
87 could be put to better use (more valuable) than $539?
My friend flying from ORD to Honolulu with UA ticket of $950+. In this case,
using miles seems the winner. Is it right thought process?

发帖数: 212 | 7 正确的兑换姿势应该是：
SFO-HNL: VX 20K换Hawaii Airline.
ORD-HNL: KE 25K或Fyling blue 30K 换Delta.
不过你这票买的太晚，应该没有这些里程票了。
感觉你朋友从ORD走用UA点数还很划算，你从SFO走要不就用CSR 1:1.5用UR换吧。
免close-in booking fee $75的trick是订21天后的机票，然后24小时内打电话改票，
不过据说YMMV.
而且就算免了$75你用UA点数订也不划算，还不到1:1.2c.

发帖数: 194 | 12 I do have AA card. The problem is that booked my UA already in Dec. with a
friend from ORD. Now the friend from ORD can't make it so I need to get a
ticket for a local friend in the Bay Area. Therefore, UA flight would be
better.
My experience with AA is they cost more miles that UA. Last July, I gave my
AA mile to my brother from New Orleans to Seattle, AA costs 42500 miles. UA
domestic would take only 25K. I have the AA card since 2013, but haven't
really fly much. They gave me the sign on miles 40K. And the card costs
almost 100 each year. I was going to cancel, but they agree to wave the fee
so I still have it. Please tell me more about your experience with using AA
credit card and how to take advantage of it.
Many thanks in advance!
By the way, any one will be on the 1/28 Hawaii cruise? |
