It comes out to about 85k UR. Worth it? It is the exact dates and times I need.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Leave - 3/21-23 (Fri, Sat or Sun)
Return - 3/29-30 (Sat or Sun)

AS would be cash option valuing 85k UR @ 1.6

If you can go 03/20-03/30 you can get lie-flat beds on United for 80K (versus crappy domestic first on AS with a little extra legroom)

I search UA and see 40k for the 3/20 flight but 80k for the return. How do I tell if it is lie flat.

I searched ORD-HNL.
You can piece together paid interisland flights later on.

Flights via EWR, IAD, and some IAH will be lie-flat in business.
I saw EWR on 03/20 and IAD on 03/30.

So I would have a paid flight (avios) ORD to EWR?

No, if you search ORD-HNL you should see the option via EWR

No ORD-EWR-HNL at all on the 20th. Does have IAH but not lie flat. Thanks for the different ideas. Will try different searches.
ETA: Have a lot to learn. For two travlers it does show up.

Keep the beds to yourself, no need for everyone to be stuck together on the same flight in domestic first...

It would help if you told us which route you were pricing out.

Anyone want to take a guess?
