yes I think we need at minimum 10 days to spend in Dubai so 6 days trip with a child from USA is waste of my miles, points and cash. I was thinking of Mexico because it isn't too far. never been there. so when i google things to do in mexico with a child, so many places pops up like mexico city, cancun rivera maya or something and talks about white clean sandy beaches for family to enjoy. I posted a question on Mexico section on First time Mexico travel for a family in January? Flyertalk. Hope some will guide us there. Is mexico doable with miles and points? I can't afford expensive resorts on cash.
