How to Get 88% Off
If you don’t have any Starwood points to transfer and don’t have access to buying Amex Reward points, then buy miles through LifeMiles, the loyalty program of Avianca. This brings the cost of Washington, DC- Tokyo in First Class down to $3,396 (the cost of 150,000 miles) while the normal fare is $27,284. Otherwise, the Amex-point purchase at $2,750 round-trip is a steal at 90% off the normal $27k+ fare.
