Thanks, I am sure we will. Merida is my favorite Disney princess by the way
I usually post practically live trip reports on the
ABD forum but this isn’t an ABD trip. I can post a trip report here if everyone likes. We did manage to get our flights and hotels with points and miles, so I imagine it isn't too off topic but I will leave that for others to decide.
So starting with the flights which is MIA - KEF. DH wanted lie flat seats so my only option was Delta. Delta wanted 700,000 Sky Pesos and the OOP cost was about $2900 pp. We already had a lot of UR points and had also recently each got the CSR when it was at 100k. So we purchased the flights through the UR portal and that was a little over 181,000 UR points pp. prior to this I have only transferred UR points to airlines and booked award flights. Our best options for the hotel stay was either Hilton or Radisson Blu. We opted for the Hilton Nordica in Reykjavik using the Citi Prestige 4th night free benefit and the other 3 nights were on Hilton points.
Since it is an international first class flight we did not need to use our Amex Platinum to get Delta lounge access. We should be arriving in Iceland in about 5 hours. Delta has Gogo wifi availability and the Amex business Plat card comes with 10 Gogo wifi passes per year and That is how I am able to be on the interwebs while flying.
