My first thought was transferring UR points to United Airlines points (30k pp each way), but UA points are worth about 1.5 cents each, so that translates to about $900 each person round-trip which seems like a lot to me.
I've saved 200,000 UR Points (but also have 200,000 SW points). What's the most best way for 3 of us to travel? Thank you in advance
Google Flights shows round trip cash fares for that route in the $1200 or so range for those dates (and UA is at $1697). So 60K UR points for a $1200 ticket is more like 2.1 cents per point.
Have you checked how many points would be required to book via the Chase UR portal?
Lastly, you're not likely to find astounding cpp value on economy tickets - the really good value (when measured by cpp) tends to be on international F/J tickets, IME.
