Wherever there's an open seat?

I've had so much trouble using FF miles over the past couple years...with both Delta and United.

Good luck :)

If you have all those miles, go to Europe... with the Euro at $1.47... I'd use my miles to go to where. otherwise, I could not afford to go.

I hear that a lot Teresa but we never seem to have a hard time. Well we don't necessarily travel during the high seasons & we go off days. Never can find a Sat-Sat anymore but I think that might be a good thing.

Italy....mmmmmmmmmm

If you want to stay in the "tropical" theme try French Polynesia; Delta flys into Papeete, Tahiti, and you could puddle jump to BoraBora or Moorea.

If you've got something different in mind, Europe is a good choice. With the dollar so weak, a cruise gives you a good value.

Of all the ports we visited in September, Venice and Croatia are at the top of the list for a return visit.

I saw a Celebrity itinerary today that hits Italy, Croation and Greece.

have fun,

Maui is lovely, not St. John, just different. And great way to burn the FF miles.

I would do Hawaii. Spend your cash on the helicopter tours, swimming with dolphins and staying at fabulous resorts/villas!

Anywhere! If you can't buy whole tix with them, do the seat upgrade thingy.

To maximize your miles I recommend either Australia or South Africa. Both are fab!

New Zeland, Australia, and French Polynesia get my votes! Any of these would be somewhere I would like to go!
