Jabber,

Marriott has 2 vacation awards. One gives you 1 roundtrip ANYWHERE on the system (of their partner airlines) an 5 nights at a Marriott, ATT calling card and 25% discount at Hertz, for 150K points. The other gives you 2 roundtrips anywhere, 7 nights at a Marriott, ATT calling card, 25% Hertz discount for 200K points. With United, rather than give you a certificate, they will deposit the required points for you. So if you are going to Australia, that would require that they deposit a MINIMUM of 60K miles for a SAVER award, or 100K miles for the regular award.
