Agreed with above, it's awesome to get great value but sometimes the opportunity cost isn't worth it. In your situation getting a free flight to FLL to take a vacation you enjoy is just as valuable. I almost have to make myself not hoard just based on "value" but you can't take points to the grave either.

PS: check out awardhacker.com & awardmapper.com are quick ways to see how much you'll have to spend in points vs transferring, especially with awardhacker since airline alliances can be confusing.

Just tested a flight to HK both directly through United and then through Chase UR with Reserve bonus.

100k pts plus $60 through United
65k pts through Chase UR

I know that isn’t the airline you all are talking about transferring points to, but that’s a huge difference for United.
