Cash (one-way): $2,850 Points: 120K AMEX + $622 per person
This is a good example of when points make sense.
The goal isn’t chasing eye-popping cents-per-point math. It’s securing long-haul premium seats when cash pricing is elevated and availability is limited.
Flexible points matter here because they give you options across programs, not because the redemption looks flashy in a spreadsheet.
Same seat. Same flight. Predictable access.
Where are points & miles taking you next?
