Best Usage of Miles/Points during Thanksgiving Trip
 
Hello Experts,

I live in MSP and I am trying to figure out where I should go for Thanksgiving..

Leave - Nov 27 or Nov 28 from MSP (2 tickets)

Return - Dec 1 (One to MSP, one to STL instead of returning to msp as I work in STL the following week..if this does not work, i could come back to MSP)

I want to go to either Vegas or LA with my wife as we figure this is the last time we will be able to go before we have a baby (due april).

Points/Miles - Flexperks 150K, United - 75K each, Delta 85K, MR Rewards 60K, AA - 45K each, UR Points - 160K, Hilton - 167K, Radisson - 85k (plus 2 free nights anywhere in North America from last year 's buy 1 get 1 night expiring Dec 31) Priority Club - 85K plus one night free from the PC card..

Please give me what is the best way to do this...I have been thinking Flexperks 30K each to LA and use the Radisson nights. Any better ideas?

I would try to burn the SkyPesos first. I see Delta availability for your dates at 40k per ticket. You have several options for Nov 27th and Nov 28th, but the return flight is the red-eye leaving Saturday night.
