I book trips for my wife relation to attend college, in the US and England since they are in China.

We have helped several of her brothers, and sisters children.

The miles have helped a great deal, never a problem..

I am sure this has been discussed, but I didn't see anything recently.

Is it ethical to ask my father who earns a significant amount of miles/points to use his points to send me on a trip to school? I'm not asking if it's ethical to ask another person to pay my way, I'm wondering if it's ethical to use his points instead of paying cash out of my pocket?

If I can't use his points, I would be on the hook for over 600 dollars r/t. Is there anything wrong with using points to send a third party to Toronto for school.

No offense, but this is a silly question. He can buy a plane ticket for the mayor of Upper Siberia, or a Martian if he wants to. Has absolutely nothing to do with ethics. It's as ridiculous a question as me asking if it's ethical to use my BK Gift Card to buy my father a whopper. :confused: But I won't feed the troll.
