maybe i wasn't clear, its been confusing enough.
call number 1 i was told buy a reward ticket using the 150k miles on my voucher and just pay UC taxes. I ended up buying a Y revenue and paying Y taxes plus the difference up to UC. call 2 was saying pay both taxes in full and the same for the companion voucher. Call 2 i was quoted over $4500 as "the cheapest option" , I actually paid around $3500
