Hello!

My wife and I would like to travel hack a trip from NYC to Tokyo to Vietnam (or Thailand). Would be during the holidays (~Dec 22 - Jan 4 2024).

Important details:

- We have about 7k in monthly spend we can put on a credit cards.

- 780+ credit scores for both of us

- Both 0/24 for Chase

- each have just one credit card open

- we would prefer business or first class on the way back, but not required.

- would love an overwater bungalow at some point.


I am open to any and all ideas (even different locales, although Japan is non-negotiable).


How do we do this? What cards would be best for bonuses/airlines? Lodging too.


Thanks!
