HI there we want to fly to Europe next year and use our points but seems impossible to find business class reward options for 3 people. what is best way to use 300,000 velocity points to europe?
we are travelling with one 3 years old
Hi @Peggy and welcome,
Assuming you are located on the East Coast, it will cost you 75k | 112.5k | 139k in Velocity points or 58.5k | 101k | 130.5k Krisflyer miles in economy | premium economy | business class.
With your point balance of 300k Velocity pts (equivalent to 193.5k Krisflyer if transferred from Velocity), you will have enough for about 4 (via Velocity) or 5 (via Krisflyer) economy passenger seats.
Please note that cash surcharge will be higher via Velocity.
For any children above 2 years of age, the award seat cost are the same as an adult.
Depending on the class of travel (often in premium cabins), it is common to only find 2 seats on most flights.
If you are happy to fly economy, one way to reduce your out of pocket costs, you could fund 2 passengers’ return flights and pay for the 3rd passenger with cash.
You should have better luck finding seats on Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways and to some extent Etihad.
Any further questions please ask.
