Hi There,
My wife and I are planning to travel to Paris via AUH on or around 6th April. I`m WP VA and SWMBO has no status. We have roughly 168,000 points we could use. VA show reward seats on the 6th April and the VA help desk shows AUH to Paris again on the 9th so a 2 day stopover. Then on to Paris.
I need to return to start work again on Monday 5th May and my wife will stay on in Europe to walk the Camino and then visit relatives in the UK, (yes she has a great life) returning late June. At this stage we are not sure of her return date so would prefer to book 1 way only for her, she has a UK passport so no issues there.
My questions are:
Is it that much more to book 1 way fares? If it is we would consider booking a return for her.
Am I better just to book my return using the points I have and use cash for her flights?
I`m only thinking of a stopover in AUH as thats where Etihad fly through and I have VA points to use, open to any other options or deals out there at around the same time.
Thanks in advance for your help.
