i have around 240K miles right now, and will try to get around 300K-325K by the time i have to book the tickets.
Sadly this is not quite enough for three BE RT ticket USA-Asia, even in low. Can you get to 360,000 miles? Or would you consider putting one or two in BE and one or two in coach on the same flights? Doing this would at least get some lounge access, more checked bags, SkyPriority lines, etc.
