Hello all,
I would like some suggestions on the best use of points (and to get them) to get to Bali with some stopovers along the way in J or F.
I don’t travel that often so I don’t have a huge amount of miles but I’m not afraid of a few CC bonuses or buying miles at (hopefully) decent price.
I’ll be traveling with my husband so I would need two awards. I’m looking to travel August/September 2020. I’d really like to take advantage of stopovers and see as many countries as reasonably possible in a 2-3 week time frame.
I’m on the east coast and will fly out of JFK/EWR/PHL.
In terms of credit card points, I have 90k UR points through CSP/Freedom and 10k TY points from Citi Prestige.
I’m considering applying for Amex Gold ( saw an offer for 50k MR points) and Alaska Airlines 40k bonus.

I was cosidering SQ in J for ~200k JFK—SIN-DPS with a stopover in FRA. I’d like to take the train to Amsterdam from FRA before continuing on to SIN. (This assumes I transfer Amex, Citi and UR and have an extra 50k points by the time I need to book) .

I’d like to use the Alaska bonus plus purchasing 60k (assuming they have another mileage sale at some point) for about $1700.
I would then use the 100k miles to book DPS-HKG-JFK on CX with a stopover in HKG. My husband and I could also both apply for the Alaska CC but he’s not as into applying for credit cards for the points.

Suggestions? I am not married to these routings other than I want to get to DPS in a premium seat that allows for stopovers somewhere I can explore.

Would two award tickets be feasible on these routes?
