I am scratching my head to help my friend to plan for his trip. Hope the experts in AFF can help out a little...
Friend has 40k AMEX MR and 280k velocity in the bank.
wants to travel F or J where possible.
start/finish in SYD.
stops: Singapore, New York, Niagara Falls, San Francisco, Honolulu.
appreciate in any tips on maximizing the points and experience given the very tricky set of stops/destination.
initial thought: use Krisflyer for SQ F SYD-sin-fra-JFK one way.
then Krisflyer partner one way award EWR-BUF-ORD (transit)-SFO-HNL-ICN (transit)-SYD and pay $300US for 3 stop. But sq call Centre is not very confident this is a valid itinerary and got various reasons for not ticketing.
thanks!
