Hi All, relatively new to the points game and would love some advice from the experts here (BTW if this is not the right forum to post pls direct me to the appropriate forum - thx).

I am planning travel for 4 from SFO - BOM in late Dec returning back early Jan. Would really love to fly Business (or prem economy). Bet Chase Ultimate Rewards and Capital One I have ~375k points
- I know by itself it's not enough but are there any other strategies I should use ? cash + miles or cheaper partner redemption or upgrade etc ?
- As of today only Air India has opened availability (and I dont think they have opened up their entire inventory - esp to their partner frequent programs). Given this is peak travel time should I purchase / lock in right now or should I wait ?

Would appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!
