The miles + money option gives you very little benefit in terms of saving, would you not be better booking 1 all miles reward ticket (40k miles i think) and then pay normally for the other 3. You may find that this saves you more money and there may be more opportunity to find a single reward seat.

I think that all depends. I have used M+M for my son and his girlfriend on the 11-25 June took the price from £420 down to £332.

Is this with or without tax's and fees? - I make this a total saving of £352 vs a single ticket saving of £420? (depending on the tax etc arrangements) And of course you don't get to claim new miles on 4 flights instead of 1.

Sorry you have lost me there.

Their flights were £420 each (everything included) and £332 each using 2000 miles (everything included).

I managed to get 7 reward flights to Orlando this summer so they are there.

I just checked Virgin flights and when we want to go we would only save £48 but if you work it out that is better than spending 35000 (offered at present) to save £450
