Best way to buy 11 tkts to israel
« on: October 03, 2012, 11:42:11 AM »
I am looking to buy 11 tkts to israel. They come out to around $1200 each (After that trip report on turkish air economy comfort, i'd consider getting that, that is $1600 each).
What's the best way to buy the tkts. I assume amex gold card at 3ppd. Can I buy turkish air economy comfort through chase travel portal or something and get another chase point per dollar spent? Any other suggestions?

You can buy through the shopping portal through Chase and get chase points - go through Travelocity for example.

Also if you buy one ticket direct with Turkish air or through Chase UR you can get 5ppd right now with your Freedom card.

Is the Freedom unlimited bonus points?

No. Up to $1500 a card I believe.

I can get you a nice deal on that. Is it 11 adults?
