I'm not sure if this is where I would post this, but I need help. You guys seem so mileage saavy I thought I would ask for your assistance. Here's my question:
My sister, neice and I would like to travel to MSP from MSY ($262/person on AirTran) for a weekend and stay at the Residence Inn (Category 3- $89/nt) for three nights. My husband and I have a small number of miles in many different airlines and hotel accounts. Is there anything I can do with the following to cut down on costs. SWA doesn't fly to MSP, but I can get $300/ticket on Ebay to apply toward my costs. Here's what I have:
Continental: 5,060 - Me
Continental: 6,060 - Spouse
Continental: 2,548 - Spouse - he has two ?
AA: 3,000 - Spouse
AA: 1,700 - Me
Marriott: 21,750 - Spouse
HHonors: 7,000 - Spouse
HHonors: 7,000 - Me
PriorityClub: 3,770 - Me
US Air: 3,882 - Me
Delta: 7,628 - Me
Rapid Rewards: 9 - Me
