You can see a list of Ultimate Rewards transfer partners HERE.

Most of these airlines (excluding Southwest) belong to one of the three international airline alliances:

Skyteam
OneWorld
Star Alliance

Any airline in an alliance can offer award travel on flights operated by all of the airlines in the same alliance. This means that you can use UR points to travel to essentially every destination served by any of these airlines. This does NOT mean that you can transfer points to all of those airlines. For example, to travel on American Airlines you would need to transfer to British Airways, and redeem according to the award charts and fees published by BA (not by AA).

100,000 points will not be enough for two business class intercontinental round trips. It may be enough for two economy class intercontinental round trips. I suggest that you figure out where you want to go, and when, and then ask for specific help if you cannot work out how to redeem.
