I did W over the water bungalow a couple yrs ago. Food was pricey but that’s going to be the case anywhere in the Maldives. They have a good house reef but not sure how it’s recovered from the coral bleaching in 2016

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?

However, at times, it feels the communication is coerced and there is a lack of rapport. Anyone else struggle with this? Thanks!
