Our luxurious vacation cost 1 million credit-card points and $12,000. We spent 14 days in Europe and never flew less than business class.
Briefly

By being intentional with my credit card usage, I maximized point earnings across different categories, ultimately amassing around a million points for our trip.
I consulted with my daughter and decided to build an itinerary covering Dublin, Amsterdam, Valencia, Paris, and London, allowing each city to showcase its unique offerings.
Using an awards-checker tool like Point.me allowed me to identify the best flight redemptions, ensuring I got the most out of my accumulated points.
Paying out of pocket for first-class round-trip flights enabled me to earn more points, enhancing my overall trip value and future travel opportunities.
