Should I convert points to airline miles or vacation packages?
I am really at a lost here & a total newbie so, bare with me. I have 1/2 million Marriott reward points. I'd like to use the points to fly to Hawaii. It would be me & my dh, and my 2 dds. So, I need 4 tickets. We have too many timeshares to ever need the hotel stays. So, I am not sure what value the vacation packages are. But everything I read says the vacation packages are a better value. Would it be a better value for me to convert my rewards to miles or to buy a vacation package? Also, most vacation packages only have miles for two flights (I believe). So, how do I get 4 flights instead of 2? I have about 5000 points with Hawaiian airlines so, I could use points there. Any advice for this newbie?
Thanks,
Tina
