My dates are little flexible. Any time June 1st to Aug 10th.
Based in DFW.
2 adults and 2 kids (6 and 10 years)
Want first or business class.
No preference on destination, Europe, Australia or Asia. The more stopovers or destinations, the better it would be.
I do not have status on any airlines.
These are the miles I have. As far as possible, I want to use low tier redemption and not the peak or full price double miles.
AA 431K + 274K
BA 125K + 125K
Delta 320K + 278K + 36K + 37K
US 180K
United 97k + 68K + 20K
Amex MR 75K
SW 55K
Etihad 85K
Marriott 200K
I also have Marriott 7 day cat 5 certificate if we end up going to one place for a longer time.
Any suggestions? I read somewhere that there are some experts who find and book tickets for a fee. Any recommendations on such services?
Thanks all.
Others will know better than me but I think 4 x 150k OneWorld Explorer rewards are the way to go. That way you can choose a destination in all of the regions you list.
