Difficult in S FL as well but since it has a whole year to do it... though we normally only do the first 25K.
We have close to 400K balance now before the first 25Kx2 kick in. Used about 60 to 70K a year but sometimes have to book the crappy IntraEurope biz (VIE-LHR - Retail of close to $300 in coach!) or the PE on CX (HKG-HND on a more desirable time) due to availability. So we want to have a good cushion.
