Thank you.

I've never opted for purchasing miles; instead, I consistently choose and pay the desired class of service for all my trips. Unfortunately, I've never amassed a sufficient amount of miles to redeem for a complimentary journey. While I currently have no immediate plans to utilize these miles, I do anticipate a trip to Tokyo in the summer of 2025. Taking a preliminary glance at the prices for the summer of 2024, I must admit they seem exorbitant. The upcoming Tokyo trip might be the sole reason I'd consider using miles to offset the costs or potentially cover the entire trip with mileage redemption.
