Need clarification on booking award travel
I think I missed the boat on this whole 2.0 conversion thing.
I have 3 Standard Awards in my account (expiring in August and September). I also have 9,751 points which it seems I can convert to a free flight award because my account shows I have 8.5 past credits. if I do so that would give me 4 Standard Awards.
I'm trying to book round-trip flights for me and my wife from LAX-DEN in July. I can get the outbound flight I want but not the return (no standard awards available). These standard awards are going to be hard to use!
I suppose there's no way to convert these to a Freedom award or to points at this point? I don't have enough points accumulated to book this using points.
