This video breaks down exactly how I booked a multi-city Asia trip (San Diego, New York, Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Shanghai) using American Express Membership Rewards, Bilt points, Alaska miles, Japan Airlines miles, and Delta SkyMiles. I explain how I found rare business class award availability, why I transferred points the way I did, and how I calculated 2.5 cents per point in value.

If you want to learn how to book premium cabin flights to Asia using credit card points — even with award availability getting harder to find — this is a real-world example of what’s still possible.
