I don’t have any business travel planned next month, but I could book some personal travel and have plenty of AMEXMR points that I could pay for revenue tickets with. But where can I find good deals on that travel site? Often it seems like they’re cash/points Prices are a lot higher than just paying cash out right on aa.con then cashing my MR points out for dollars.
Any sweet spots in that redemption method or other ways to get and extra 10-15k LPs?
Generally flight + AAHotels is your best bang for the buck. A weekend trip or two could easily net you the LPs there.
Otherwise, if you're willing to just buy LPs outright and get little to nothing valuable in return (ymmv), the shopping portal is your best bet, you can sign up for a month or two subscription for a food kit or the motley fool and get a large sum there (just read into the posting time, I believe some you have to be subscribed for a month or two).
