I never did LA yet.
Is it something you do in the summer?
Shouldn't I rather put it away for the winter?
I (probably) have more than enough points for Hotels & flights, Approximately how much cash out of pocket would it be for a 10 day trip with 2 kids?
Depends what you want to do. 10 days may be a bit much in LA, unless you plan on doing a few of the parks.

Doesn't sound too bad. If you can handle a day or two at the beach and mix in some of the activities mentioned in the LA thread, you should have a great time.

So only with the 757, I didn't even know united flys from JFK!
I believe if you call it in they're supposed to round it off to 17k

I'd do LA and SD. That's too much time in LA for my tastes.

Reading through the Caribbean thread is basically reading Dan bashing people and telling them to go to Hawaii instead. Lol.  :P
3 hour flight from nyc (not sure where you are lcoated), puerto rico can have beach and nice activities as well. there is also a few options for food.
