Also, I'm not interested in adding another credit card just to bump up the miles. Are there any tricks out there to transfer them out?
At 35k, there are a number of carribean and central american trips. You can find someone to trade a 2,000 mile NWA cert for something you have. This will pop you up to 35k.
