Ways to Aus

    hi all! I was lucky enough to get my family on ua awards in business to Australia (3 on the same day!) but now need to sort my own flight out. I’m leaving ideally between 20-23 dec. I know it’s a super tough time to find. I’ve got a good amount of thank you, ultimate rewards and United points. I’ve been monitoring the United website for aome different options. E.g. Ana or Eva and have found one of the legs here and there (and once found Ana all the way to Sydney). Korean unfort has a peak surcharge which is a prohibitive use of thankyou points. Any thing else to look for? Etihad?

    hi [USER=2190]@Mick[/USER], try using [URL]http://www.travelcodex.com/award-maximizer/[/URL] or [URL]http://www.milez.biz/en/index.php[/URL] to see different options. Hopefully that will help with your decision. Good luck, you’re right that’s a tough time of year for award availability.
