Nice to see all the peeps taking advantage of the credit card sign up bonuses. You can fly first class to Jamaica with one sign up bonus, if you do a little reading. This does not apply to all travelers, as a lot of the credit card offers only cater to US customers. Sadly, I can fly cheaper to Asia in premium cabins than I can to Jamaica with miles/points. Though if you plan far enough out you can usually get some seats at saver levels. United has been my best redemption from California, with both their flights as well as their partnership with Copa. American Airlines award availability is horrible for their own redemptions.
