I'm with FM1 on this. The hard product various between airlines and airplane models, but my gut is that a United Flight from LAX to Punta Cana will not be anywhere near the same as biz to Europe/Asia.
Check the flight details to get the airplane model number and then You Tube it to see what it'll look like. If it's not a lie-flat pod, whats the point?
Thank you all! I canceled and got my points back. Will look for a different flight
You made the right call!
You’d be better off transferring Chase points to United as LAX-PUJ in business cost 35k UA miles.
Who’s the flight with/ what airline?
United

So this flight costs only $1.6k cash to fly biz? What route is this? Normally 80k to fly biz is decent but that cash price seems abnormally low if you're crossing an ocean.
The flight is 1500$ and with the points it’s 80k instead of 159k (2* points boost) I guess I’ll just use all my points. Route is LAX-Punta Cana so it’s quite long

I'm not sure that route even offers lie-flat seats so you're basically using all your points for a domestic business class experience. Not worth it imo but I value Hyatt and "real" international biz (Europe/Asia) pretty heavily, so that's just me.
Need to act in the next 30min as my cancellation period will expire
