Finished my Christmas to New Years plans.
Destination Escape popped up for the final days. Prior days were cheap days anyway. And for the expensive point days, did a reservation with 7VC code that made it cheaper (Valuing Points at .50 compared to Cash price)

I love working the system and not being stuck with 7 day vacations. Flying in and out on days with cheap air fare.

South California and Palm Desert.
All started with some 2018 Bank points I needed to burn and ended up with a great vacation.
