This is my very first post so sorry if I am not in the right section.


I am trying to Fly from DFW to AMD on Feb 5 and coming back to DFW on Feb 16.

Two options I have are

1. Qatar Airways on 5th DFW to DOH to AMD on Feb 5th on Qatar Airways an coming back on 16th of FEB AMD to DOH to DFW. This flight is Qatar Airways 730 Boein 777

2. Emirates 222 Airbus 380. on 5th DFW to DXB to AMD and coming back on 16th AMD to DXB to DFW.


My main goal in this flight has been to fly first class from DFW to DOH/DXB and DXB/DOH to DFW. the other flight can be economy if it has to be. I had heard about points and miles last year so in a year I have just been accumulating points and now not sure what is the best way to use it as I am getting confused.

Here is what I have. I have 50K in Chase Ultimate Rewards, 260K in AmEx Points,I have 135K in American Airlines miles and 120K in SPG rewards

My goal to fly the first class 1 person for this trip and have once in a life time experience specifially for the long flight of 17 hours. Would appreciate some pointers and advice on this. Just not sure how best to utilize the points I have.

Thanks
