@pointedbyjared: If you have 55,000 Amex points, you have enough points for a round trip economy flight to Europe. ✈️🇩🇪 Here's exactly how it works. Singapore Airlines flies nonstop between New York and Frankfurt on the 777-300ER. KrisFlyer, their loyalty program, prices each leg at 27,500 miles in Economy Saver. ✅ JFK → FRA | 27,500 miles + $5.60 ✅ FRA → JFK | 27,500 miles + €131.70 ✅ 55,000 points total Amex Membership Rewards transfers to KrisFlyer at 1:1, so 55,000 Amex points becomes 55,000 KrisFlyer miles. Chase Ultimate Rewards transfers 1:1 as well. Now look at that return number. Germany charges a departure tax on every ticket leaving the country, which is why flying home costs €131.70 while flying over costs $5.60. Your points cover the seat. They don't cover that. And Frankfurt is where you land, not where you have to stay. It's one of the biggest hubs in the world, so from there you can get almost anywhere cheap. Mallorca, the rest of Europe, even onward into Asia. Santorini is just the example I pulled up: 2h50m nonstop, $466 round trip. Cross the Atlantic on points, then pay cash for the short hop. Two rules before you move a single point. Confirm the Saver space is live on your exact dates, and never transfer speculatively. Transfers are final and there's no sending them back.
