Hence if you're limits with miles, it's always better to book one (or more) people round trip with $$ rather than book two people one way with miles and try and book both with $$ one way on the return.
Hi there, I'm not sure I follow. We were unable to find any flights that matched the award routes available, so we only had two options: book all flights as revenue tickets or else book them all as reward miles. If we had chosen round trip, then it would have been double the miles, right?
