Trying to see the validity of trying to book 2x return trips from Melbourne to London using the 250,000 velocity points from the NAB home loan promotion.
I'm a QFF so apologies for the questions!

So far I am struggling to see any fares, of 75,000 points each way at all?

The best I can see is, 63900 points + $431.95 Mel - Lhr and 63900 points + $570.20 for Lhr - Mel, per person.
$1002.15 in taxes per person.

A standard fare is $1832.15 on this route

$830 value for 127,800 points. That values the whole 250,000 at $1623.63

This doesn't seem right!!?!
Am I doing something wrong here?!

How do I access the 75,000 points + $114.71 in taxes??

Thanks!
