Best mileage rates?
« on: April 29, 2011, 07:47:29 PM »
Hey all, any advice out there for booking mileage tix? I've got to book multiple round trip tix for the end of June (worst airfare of the year!) from NY to LAX (or Burbank) and I've got Amex, CO, and AA miles to use. Any tips on how to make the most of them??? Thanks!

I'm assuming you are looking for coach.
Given that, you should pay 25K for a round trip ticket on either CO or AA.
AA flies Non-stop from both JFK and EWR to LAX.
CO which is a milage partner/merging with United, flies EWR to LAX, and United flies JFK to LAX.
MR transfers into CO at a 1:1 rate.
Good luck!
