So far I learned I may not really want to buy miles under most circumstances. I understand the only use for buying miles is if you want to buy yourself into Business/First. But the best things in life are free, so why would I want that.

I also wonder how Avianca flights from Europe to Europe work. Can I use any Star airlines or just specific partners? A quick Google didn't help much.
