Hi -
I need to go from Newark, Phille, or AC to Orlando next week Tuesday 10/8 in the AM and return 10/9 in the late afternoon/evening

I have about 100,000 UR points. What is the best way to use the least miles to book a single round trip ticket and a hotel near the convention center.

Thanks in advance!!
Try posting here.
ETA: I see you already did.

Sorry for being such a Noob but... If someone purchases a one-way ticket - say from FLL to LGA and it has a 3 hr stopover in CLE, can the person just get off in CLE, stay for a week or 2 and then still use the ticket CLE - LGA?  I guess what I am asking is can you extend the stopover for days or even weeks?

You can book it that way in the beginning but you can't just get off, not take the flight and expect to be able to take it at a later date.

For one ways most of the times you will be best looking in to award options.
