What to do with 115k miles
 

Hi guys and girls,

I have 115k Skywards miles in the account and I just want to use them up any ideas what is best to use them on?

what is the shortest flight Emirates do? could I redeem a business class seat or put them towards a flight for me and the Mrs to go somewhere?

really appreciate any advice or ideas.

thank you...

Shortest flight EK does, probably DXB-DOH or DXB-KWI. However best value for miles is to use them towards an upgrade. Buy Economy Flex or Flex Plus (if the price difference isn't too significant) and upgrade. Check upgrade availability first and see how many miles you need for a given route on the Skywards calculator.

You can get an F class return UK-DXB for 135k points plus taxes. An F-J would be 112.5k points. A J return would be 90k points. All depending on saver availability.

thanks DYKWIA,

I wish I had 180k miles a J class return for me and the Mrs would be perfect :(

If youre based in the UK you can redeem miles on EasyJet too.

actually that is a good point can they be redeemed on Qantas?

Yes.
