Am I missing something here??
Greetings! My husband and I are planning a trip to New Zealand this Christmas season. I watched the cost of a Delta flight for about 6 months and it never dropped below 3k for a ticket. I finally bit the bullet and bought 2 economy seats for my husband and I. In total we have around 1 million Delta Skymiles saved and want to upgrade to Delta One. I'm shocked that the cost of a DeltaOne flight is nearly $14k or 920K points per ticket. How can this be that a million points won't be enough to upgrade up both? We are both new to points and maybe I'm just living in an alternative reality that doesn't exist. I'm aware we are traveling during the costliest time period. Am I missing something here or is this just the reality that a million points isn't going to get us that much? Thanks for any outside perspective you can give me.
