Emirates points booking
Greeting everyone,
I am quite newto thepoints game. I am planing to visit to Pakistan by Emirates in Feb of 2016. I have over 180000 points that I would like to useto get a returned fare. Here is the break down of points;
Amex 73000
Chase UR 54000
Advantage American airline 64000
I want to know how I can utilize these points to book a returned fare?
How can I gather them at one platfarm.
I am very flexible with dates.
Thank you in adavance for any feed back.

There are a lot of award booking sites for help. Such as http://www.bookingguru.org or http://upgrd.com/awards/ they have fees but can help quickly with complicated fees. Otherwise transfer the points to a partner airline for the best results, but don't do so unless award space is available.

I assume you are based in the US. Unfortunately only AMEX is an EK partner. The only other reasonable option I think for an ex-US redemption would be via AS. I think the EY forum might be of more help as Etihad partner with AA?
