Haven't made the redemption yet. Mrs. Vig wants to visit the Christmas markets in NYC this winter. To save on points, I'm thinking about us staying out in Flushing Queen. AKA- Queens Chinatown. Btw, Chinatown in Queens is much bigger than the one in Manhattan. Also not as touristy. Anyway the hotel is right around the block from the 7 subway train. That train goes all the way to Times Square station. From there you can get to just about anywhere you want to go by subway, including the markets in Manhattan that Mrs. Vig wants to see.

Redemption time. Yes I know, it's generally insane to use this many miles for such a short flight, but it's our 25th wedding anniversary this fall.

 

Hyatt Queens NY. 6 nights. Used 60,000 Hyatt points and 1 free night cert. Cash out of pocket, at time of booking, would have been $2092.44

 

Delta Airlines CLT - LGA. First Class. 104,000 SkyMiles and $22.40 in taxes and fees. Cash out of pocket, at time of booking, would have been $1783.92

 

Bottom line is spending $22.40 is better than spending $3876.36
