I'm considering a TP run as I won't quite renew AU this year. By the time it runs out (end of August) I'll only have 700 points, leaving me 300 shy. Any suggestions on if it's still possible to book a fairly last minute trip in June to make up the numbers? I'd like to keep the price as reasonable as possible, but am open to travelling anywhere in the world. I'm not entirely sure if the benefits are worth it as we largely fly Upper, but I guess I'll have to weigh that up based on prices. Thanks for any suggestions.
I mean, it’s possible.
But 300 is quite a bit. You’re going to have to do an I fare one way and Z the other or S in Premium plus an I in upper.
I’d say your best bet is off season North East Coast US. BOS/IAD/JFK. Then off season Caribbean over a weekend. MCO in June is cheap. Check the EDI/MAN flights too for MCO/JFK as my June MCO flight from MAN is cheap in Upper. TLV can be a good option too.
You’re easily going to spend £2k for this run, so the question is… is that really worth it for you?
