    Booked flights for Thursday-Monday on Southwest, would have been about $260 but I had enough points to pay for the Monday return flight.
    NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.

    American airlines has really loosened award seats. If you have American airlines miles to burn, or better yet British airways avios to burn (cheaper mileage rates and essentially free cancellations!!!!!!! if Entz doesn't get the job done), here is what I am seeing for Frisco out of Fargo right now, non-stop (and sioux falls even better open inventory):

    Thursday Jan 9 FAR-DFW non-stop
    7 AM 7 first class seats and 3 coach
    2:40 PM 7 first class seats and 7 coach

    Friday Jan 10 FAR-DFW non-stop
    7 AM 7 first class seats and 1 coach
    2:40 PM 7 first class seats and 7 coach

    Sun Jan 12 DFW-FAR non-stop

    11:10 AM 7 first class seats and 1 coach
    6:40 PM 7 first class seats and 1 coach

    Mon Jan 13 DFW-FAR non-stop

    11:10 AM 7 first class seats and 1 coach
    6:40 PM 7 first class seats and 7 coach

    If you have British airways miles, get on this! REMINDER, if you have Chase UR, Citi TY points, or Amex MR, you can do this with BA Avios! Round trip, it will be 15K in economy, 30 K in first class with almost no risk.....

    If you are going regardless, also good deal with American miles.

    So this deal just got even better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    https://frequentmiler.boardingarea.c...onus-to-avios/

    So, if you have transferable Chase ultimate rewards points, your prices are down to about 11.5K for economy and 23K for first class. Guys, this is round trip with basically no risk; you cancel the ticket later, they give miles back and how onto like $10 in taxes per ticket.....yes, those of you who redeem delta miles are probably in disbelief, but this is the kind of stuff all mileage redeemers want to find!

    I don't want to sound preachy, but dang it, I've never seen a deal like this is get to Frisco! If you have trouble finding seats, let me know and I'll help.

    Really, really strange. I am not finding Hilton or Hyatt hotels available on points around Frisco anymore. Can't figure it out, but suspect Bison Fans are getting to lucrative and they are freezing out us freeloaders......

    Anyone else noticing this? I usually have my hotel booked at this point!

    No issues with Marriott points, looks like every property and some decent rates with points...
