NYC/MIA, doesn't really matter.

Real question is how long and to which places.

Okay, so I'm streching the definition of "just" a bit, but I'm still tweaking this one. Last week I got an email that one of the flights changed departure time by 5 minutes- more free changes.

IAD-NRT in UA F
HND-HKG-DXB in CX F/J
DXB-CAI-IST in MS/TK J
IST-IAD in TK J

160,000 UA miles and 45,000 AA miles for $28,394 of airfare. 13.8 or 13.9cpm depending on how you calculate fees.

Funny you say that. We're sitting in our room right now trying to figure out what to eat for dinner as the kids finally just went to sleep.
May have to hit Asian again.  ;)

My wife doesn't trust babysitters.  :(
No more roasted beef. The chef said he doesn't have access to the meat he needs for it anymore.
Had Thai chicken salad for lunch today.

I've been trying. Maybe after our 3rd visit in 3 days they'll conjure something.
The chef claimed that the hot pastrami is very similar to the roasted beef but I personally didn't think it was that great.
