I'm starting a bit (...) early to plan a trip with my family to Chile using points next year. Ideally I'd like ot go either over Christmas or Thanksgiving.

I have *wood points and can transfer to any airline (thank you SPG!), and was wondering what would be my best bet?

WeI'll be flying out of WAS.

I know the best value is often to buy and upgrade, but since I fly very little for work, I don't really have much need for upgrades, and would like to save the expense of plane tickets anyways. I am open to suggestions of bus class however if it makes sense pointwise.

Any help appreciated.
