I am looking to mainly get the biggest bang for my money.
I have just received an offer for the Amex Platinum card with 100k bonus miles and I am wondering if that would be a good choice to sign up and try to get the "free" tickets with the miles I can accrue on there alone. I am hoping to go next August.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions on how to make something like this happen.
Thanks,
Try the star alliance forum or the NH forum. You can't convert Amex points to JMB and JL doesn't operate flights to IAD but NH does.
