Help with a flight
 

Hello

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong section. I looked and couldn't find a thread for asking help with a booking.

I want to fly CNS to PDX one way. I have Chase UR and was going to top up with the 40% off United miles to do this.

I am having trouble finding something that works. I have priced an Air Canada flight from SYD-PDX for 40,000, but this means Ihave to fly down to SYD from CNS the day before as I can't get flights to get there early enough the morning of.

Any of you knowledgable people here able to find anything? I am not sure if I can book a star partner airline like Air NZ with United points?

I need to fly out around 20th July +/- few days and I need 4 award seats.

Many thanks!
