I am not *really* convinced that this would be a great idea.

The cheapest redeeming option is 8,000 Sirius points (off-peak) for one night at the Burj. Equals to 184,000 MR points. Peak redemption is 10,000 points which equals 230,000 MR points.

I know that this is a landmark hotel and was the beginning of the new era of UAE. But IMHO this is a huge amount of points needed.

The one-way redemption in BA's dedicated First starts at 120,000 Avios which would be 89,000 Amex MR points (during the 35 % limited time offer) or 120,100 MR points (with no bonus).

So the night at the Burj nearly equals one return flight in BA's First from JFK to DXB!

Super peak times at Burj al Arab require an additional 42,5 % surcharge of the Sirius points needed

But nevertheless, thanks for the hint, raj49!
