Whilst looking at ways to finally redeem some KF miles (that were at risk of expiring - thankfully now they will get two further extensions), I had an ‘oh, cough’ moment that I could have, should have transferred enough VA -> SQ points so I had enough for 2x J RTW. Instead, when VA was looking dodgy, I hedged my bets and transferred about half my VA stash over to SQ and worked out I should have enough for 1x F or 2x J Euro return Saver redemptions.
So I’m only 15k short of the 2x J RTW redemptions
.
Are there any quick options to try and make up the diff?
VA -> SQ is off (may never come back?) - this would be my go to option if available…
My CC points -> QF (auto transfer)
Don’t want to fly revenue to earn
I understand that there is an option to buy points to make up the diff for redemptions but does that apply to RTW?
Or maybe a CC signup offer that could work with KF? (I already have AMEX cards - so usually exempt from AMEX signup offers…).
