In June I am going to Ireland. A friend, Betty, is a tour guide for a company called Smartours. She will be leading the 13 day tour. I had the option of purchasing the tour as a land only tour or pay a higher price which included airfare from New York. I opted for the land only figuring I could use some frequent flyer miles to get me to Ireland.
A few years ago I got a British Airways credit card. The card came with 100,000 British Airways miles. I figured now was the time to cash in those miles. Unfortunately, British Airways charges some high fees on their tickets but I figured I would take my chances.
I was able to get a first class ticket where the fees were only $450. The ticket, if not bought with award miles, would have sold for $5876.
Here is what I am looking forward to:
