I'd rather just pay cash and not lose a full day thanks. I've heard sometimes they have some crazy sweet spots but when you have a massive amount of points would rather transfer fast then save 10 or even 20k points but deal with lots of phone hassle. Turkish is notorious for messing up award reservations (one time I got stuck in Africa because of them)
