Big question for me is where to spend the points the best!
At the moment I'm thinking transfer to Krisflyer for SQ from Sydney to Singapore in first class on the A380 next year
then the travel credit will likely go towards a return flight. Thoughts on this or anything better anyone??!
The points are best spent when and where you need them.
EG. I spent 300,000+ on SPG transferred to Marriott for accommodation throughout the US as I already had flights booked with QF points.
Don't be too hung up on getting the maximum value from them. Although I don't recommend you spend them on gift cards!
