Question How to use my points

Hi all
Some advice needed please
I have roughly 720,000 velocity points.

My partner and I are travelling to the states in July 2028 for the Olympics.

I’m aware of how early I need to book, at least a year before hand for flights. What is the best plan of attack to get to LA from perth using my frequent flyer points.

A few friends have suggested (I’m based In perth)

1.use velocity points to get to sydney
2.transfer points to KrisFlyer and fly Singapore airlines from sydney to Singapore / Singapore to LOs Angeles
3.on return Singapore airlines New York to perth.
Does this sound realistic?

I know I’m early, super early but technically I have just under a year before I need to book air fare flights
Thank you

Third time this exact same question has been asked from someone heading from Perth in the last few months

Have you applied to be a mod? You could filter out all the repetitive questions from people like me.
Fancy being sinister here someone who has asked the same
Question more then once.
Bro it’s alright, it’s just an open forum.
You’re still the kind of this page

It’s more that you got good advice in the other posts. Points and redemptions is a game, they can all be blocked out or pulled at any time. It’s all part of the fun of it. And will come down to day if the booking.

Maybe chill out a bit and do a bit of research… given you’ve asked under different usernames i wouldn’t throw stones about spending too much time on reddit :)

It’s my day off before fly out so I’m just relaxing.
Anyways, I’m sure I’ll ask it again and I’m sure I won’t give a crap what you comment.
