TUGgers-
My son will be getting married next summer, and I'd like to give him and my daughter-in-law an Hawaii vacation. We have over 1M points. It is possible to redeem points for a travel package that includes 7 nights in Kauai and 70K miles for use on United Airlines out of PHL. Rooms are available for Marriott Rewards for the week we need, AND United has tickets for mileage available on those dates.
My question is . . . How does one go about "gifting" such a trip? Is it possible to use mileage for someone else in United's program? Will Marriott allow the reservation in my son's name for my points?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ron
