Good morning!
Nothing like a dreary morning to tempt me into a Florida booking.
A few questions, all related but slightly separate.
Companion Fare
We have a companion fare for retaining gold. I'm assuming these are the same conditions as when you receive it with the credit card and there needs to be reward availability for the companion?
I Fare
I'm seeing prices to Orlando For £1,995 in May. I'm aware I need to include roughly £550 taxes for the companion. With transfers included both sides that works out at £1270pp. That seems pretty good value. I can see reward availability on the way out, but not on the return - the story of MCO. I thought I'd try other cities, mainly MIA, ATL and NYC but these I Fares are coming in at £4,500. So, is £1,995 particularly cheap for an I fare or is £4,500 a lot for an I fare? Has anyone tracked I fares before to see how much they fluctuate?
ExpertFlyer
We're extremely flexible when we travel so I thought I'd try an ExpertFlyer reward notification for returning in UC any day in May. This seems a bit of a faff as you have to input each day and each flight one at a time. Does anyone know a quick way?!
Many thanks for your help on any of the above.
