Most airlines treat Puerto Rico as a Caribbean + Mexico reward requiring 30000-35000 miles. I have been told 1 or 2 airlines treat Puerto Rico as a North American award (48 contigious states + Canada + Alaska). Which ones? I have miles to use AA, CO, DL, UA, US.

Thanks but this is only to Aguadilla, on the other side of the island. I am trying to get to San Juan. However, the 50% off sale to Brazil also sounds nice. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif
