Addicted to points!

[kostravel]

Hi everyone! Long time lurker, first time poster.

I like to get the most out of bonus point schemes and redeem them for low cost flights (e.g. paying $150 tax for a return business class redemption ticket).

This site has been a great resource in the past and hopefully I can help someone else out!

Thanks, everyone! I redeemed a few business class tickets and now I can't bring myself to use the points for anything else!

I checked out the NRT lounge crawl in the social events section and it looks great. How do you get into all the different lounges? Do you just use guest passes?

I'm actually planning a NRT trip in 2018 and hoping to try out first class

I think most of the people that went on that have status with a OW airline

I made the rookie error of not consolidating my status into one FF scheme, so no OW status for me. Are there any good routes to use for status runs?

There are lots... but depends what you want to spend, where you're based and where you want to go/need to go/are willing to go
