just for reference, i have been trying for two years to book two biz roundtrip mia- tlv
and have had no luck EVER finding two seats with a stay of two weeks or less using
United metal. I have been able to find lufthansa and swiss failry often but as known
they have pretty substantial YZ of about $1100 a ticket for the biz seats.
My points are expiring this july so if i dont find something " by miracle" over the
next few weeks i figure i will just buy, hopefully if still around, two seats on swiss or lufthansa and
pay the thousand per biz seat since they are going to be dead miles anyway soon. rationalizing it as the
cost for my mistake of the tease of the great redemption rate.
