I almost transferred all my MR to Avios during the 35% promotion, but I'm glad I didn't now - I can't find any BA awards.
I would love to try and get an SQ A380 suite, but it looks like there's a waitlist - and I don't want to commit to transferring to KrisFlyer without knowing I have a flight.
Any other good options? Paying with all points (plus taxes, obviously) would be nice, but fare + upgrade is fine too.
Thanks
You willing to fly in C and/or connect rather than the nonstop? That opens up options and reduces your mileage costs.
