3. Identify overlapping partners in your CC programs to be able to transfer for larger balance
4. Search for awards from LAX, SFO, SJC, SAN, SEA, and maybe even DEN, IAH, ORD and use your VX, B6, other points or cash to get to those cities.
Other option if you're not able or willing to do this is to hire an award booking service
Award booking services - a list and some reviews
Is there a reason you opened a new thread when you asked almost the same question in June?
appreciate the response. reason i asked again was simply because i have more information now than i did then and honestly didnt realize how unwieldy this could become.
