Is there a general rule for how far in advance you should book a flight, to be able to use frequent flyer miles to pay for it? I don't usually want to plan months in advance.
Or a related question: If I generally want to book a flight about 2 weeks in advance, are there particular airlines that are best for this? Or instead of using frequent flyer miles directly, in this case is it better to book through Ultimate Rewards (even though that might not give as much value as transferring to another program?)?
