Hi,
My husband has several hundred thousand Amplify rewards points that we would like to use for upcoming travel. On the flight route we would like the take, the only airline flying direct is Jetstar but Jetstar flights do not come up as an option when booking through the Amplify rewards Expedia booking portal.
Is it possible to cash in these points for Mastercard prepaid cards and use the multiple cards to pay for the flight direct with Jetstar? It seems that we’ll get more value with the points this way compared to transferring them to Qantas points ($1750 in gift cards vs $600 off flights using points + pay)
Any ideas?
 
How soon are you hoping to travel, if your only redemption option is points+pay? You say the only direct routing is Jetstar, but if you are flexible in routing (or dates of travel, or both) you may find much better redemption options open up.
