  • 54 posts

    We have 60k miles and a voucher we are both silver
    The route we were looking at is 195k one way in upper
    What is the amount of miles needed is it 240k plus the voucher
    or 45k plus the voucher
    is the 150k deducted, each or between?

    What’s the points for the class you want to book before the upgrade?

    It should be those points, plus the points difference. The voucher will cover up to 150k of the points difference, you would need to cover the remainder if it’s more.

    My understanding is you would need 240,000 miles plus the voucher.

    195,000 miles for Player A and then 45,000 miles plus the companion voucher for Player B.

    Yes. It isn’t so much that the voucher is poor as the dynamic prices are crazy nuts bonkers flying west to east.

    Keep an eye on prices as they can change dramatically but if you don’t have flexibility on dates and want to get flights locked down then basically it sucks.

    It’s 150k for one person. You can book a return on the same ticket if you have enough points.

    This program is useless if you want to travel peak dates. On the other hand for those who have flexibility…
