Else I might just need to pay for a coach ticket to EWR and then use miles for the overnight segment.
Is this round-trip or one-way travel? 155K miles is a
lot.
How many of these miles did you earn on those credit cards? If the answer is most or all of them, you can get an effective rate of one cent per mile by using United Choices. You buy the cash ticket that you want, and then you get a statement credit by trading in miles. For 310K miles, you could buy a $3100 fare and come out even. (Actually, you'd come out
ahead, because you'd earn miles on your flight).
When you are traveling?
