I have a friend that wants to travel within the next two months between Cleveland and Miami. I told him the fares would be pretty high because there wasn't much lead time and the Silver Meteor would be packed with people fleeing the cold. I was correct. Now, I might have a solution for him but not sure it would work.
He is not a member of AGR. If he enrolls, is there a time he has to wait before he can purchase points? With the bonus in force until Dec. 31st, I think he can purchase 13,000 points (including the bonus) for $275. I could then lend him 2,000 points and he'd have enough to take the one zone trip.
It seems to easy to me and I must be missing something.
I know another way would be to lend him the points once he enrolls and have him pay me to replace them.
Any suggestions or ideas?
