Business Extra reward gets most "bang for your buck"
Hi!
In a few months, I'll have earned 3000 Business Extra points most of which expire at the end of December. I need to redeem them for rewards and was wondering your thoughts on which awards get the most bang for your buck?
I was debating between getting a years' Admirals Club membership (3000 points) or two BXP2s (Int'l One-Way Upgrade on Full Fare, 1200 points).
From reading various posts, it seems the BXP2s are difficult to redeem, require full-fare original tickets (J, Y or B), and generally tough to deal with, so I guess I'm leaning towards a simple Admirals Club membership but I'm not sure. It seems like the value of a BXP2 could beat a $400 AC membership.
What are your thoughts on this? What do you think gets the most value from Business Extra points? Has anyone used a BXP2 before? Thanks!
