Sending prayers your way OP. Wish your son a safe and successful procedure. Hit me up if things fall with through with A1.

I'll be honest, buying SkyPesos is the worst way to acquire them. This coming from a Delta lifer. If I were in your situation I would apply for one of their credit cards and get the 30k+ bonus then cancel at some point down the road if you don't like it.

Thank you very much everyone but it looks like I got lucky, they dropped the fair and I was able to get it with what I had! Was 165k went down to 150k, lucky me. Thank you everyone for the kind words and offers 😊😊

We're going to Panama for stem cell therapy, my son is autistic and this a major breakthrough in ASD treatment, but the fucking FDA won't allow it here. I've been saving for a bit on my last project but I didn't quite hit it before it ended last week. I'm at 152k and I need about 165 or so, we schedule in late July. I got so close, was flying when they would let me work remote just to get the miles and still didn't quite make it, but I figure I've got to be able to get them easily.

Thanks everyone! I'm looking forward to it, the promise of progress. I've done a lot of research the past months and seems solid.
