Best Ways To Book

Because this is a cash ticket, you’ll want to use a credit card with extra points earnings on airfare. If you’re booking via a third party, opt for cards such as the Chase Sapphire Reserve^®, earning 3x Ultimate Rewards per $1 spent on other travel outside of Chase Travel purchase. We value Chase points at 2.0 cents each, meaning you’ll net a 6% return on all bookings when using this card.

If you opt to book directly with the airline, you’ll want to whip out a card like The Platinum Card^® from American Express. This card earns 5x Membership Rewards per $1 spent on all tickets booked directly with the airline or through AmexTravel.com (up to $500,000 per year, then 1x). We value Amex points at 2.2 cents each, meaning that if you used this card, you’d get an 11% return on your booking.
