280k Points

[rfc4eva]

Hi guys Ive slowly been accumulating 270k points and my intention is to go to America and Im wanting to fly business at least one way as Id never pay for it seems its so expensive.
My question is what would be the best way of doing it as I cant barely find any dates for the whole year coming.Or would it bee worth converting them to another Airlines program?

Thanks.

You can convert to SQ KrisFlyer but the cost is 1.35:1, you'd need to go via SIN and taxes would be expensive.

Have you tried calling Velocity to see if there is anything available on Delta or even Virgin?

Reward flights to the US are always difficult to obtain, but not impossible.

You could do an Etihad reward in J, 125k points each way.
