Help with Redeeming Points
Hello,
I am very new to actually REDEEMING points and it seems like there isn't much information on the practice of doing it the best way.
Using a site called Miles.biz which calculates the mileage and links to other airlines automatically (which is very cool), I am playing with the itinerary of LAX to SJD (Cabo San Lucas, Mexico).
The best deal was on British Airways for 15,000 miles. I went to the BA website and it says that BA does not service this route but the trip can be booked over the phone with a partner airline. Total points request, 7,500 AVION points + taxes and fees.
How do you all keep up with all this info????
Are there tricks, spreadsheets, etc.?
