So if you use miles, its more expensive than paying $ for economy unless you value your miles very lowly.
PM if you have questions, fellow Boston guy.
I didnt get your logic of 15000 miles...
It is Double miles for tickets purchased through United. (1400 * 3tickets)*2=~9k
I am looking for the option of not using miles.
Seeing for Qatar airways from chicago and hyd..its coming around 3025 for 3
And domestic from bos to ord. Cmg around 600..
Total for 3700 for 3.
