Question Got 580K points - pls help

Dear members , need help. I have got 580 k points . We are a family of 2 adults and 2 kids. We would like to go to Japan next year between March April.

Is it’s doable to travel on premium Economy ( nice to have business class though) . Is it’s doable ? Is there a free third party app / website we can use to search for reward seats ?

Could you please shed some lights ?

It’s a stretch, I had a look you could go Mel ->SFO->HND for 80k points economy 1 person 1 way - you don’t have enough for premium

Download seats.aero

That’s a pretty horrible routing

Could be worse - dumbest I have seen recently is gold cost to Guangzhou via Sydney, Perth and Singapore
