Hi all,
I'm having to travel urgently to China (Taiyuan) for work to meet some manufacturers. This will be my first overseas trip. I will be travelling with another person.
I'm also wanting to tack on a Guam trip + the island hopper to Honolulu and back with my best mate.
Therefore, I'm looking for assistance with finding flight availability and routings this month (Feb) for the following:
- MEL-somewhere-TYN and return for 2 people; then
- MEL-somewhere in Asia-GUM and back; whilst doing
- GUM to HNL via Saipan and Palau and back (slotting inside MEL-GUM-MEL trip)
I have approximately 1M points across QF, SQ, AA, USDM, LifeMiles, SPG and Amex MR. I'm hoping that I can mix in some paid flights (good value for money though) on *A to get *A Gold via Aegean over the course of these trips but wanting to focus on using points. Happy to buy points if good VFM. Whilst in HNL I'm planning on doing a status run to SJU and back to get OWE status (QF WP).
Ideally, all flights will be J or above (loathe Y) for both the work trip for 2 and holiday for 2--naturally using the last hurrah of the USDM GUM loophole for the holiday
More than happy to flick some cash the way of the helper-outerer that assists with planning these flights.
Btw, recommendations re: accommodation won't go astray. I'm planning to burn approx. 35K HGP points on Guam and Saipan Hyatts.
Thanks in advance!
