There is also limited availability between LAX/WAW and MIA/WAW

Air Canada: Starting at 70k points + $57-86 in tax/fees. Spend an extra 14-15k points to make the flight freely changeable/cancellable. Otherwise $75 CAD for changes and $150 CAD to cancel per ticket.
Transfer Partners: Amex, Bilt, Capital One, Chase
Tip: Chase has up to 25% transfer bonus (15% for <74k points, 20% for <174k points, 25% for 175k+ and Aeroplan cardholders get an extra 10% as well for up to 35% bonus)

ANA: Starting at 50k points + $89-125 in tax/fees. 3k miles deducted for cancellations. Free changes.
Transfer Partners: Amex
Tip: Points transfers are never instant and can take up to 3 days

Avianca LifeMiles: Starting at 80k points + mystery tax/fees. Avianca won’t tell you how much tax/fees are until you check out. You can’t check out unless you have points in your account. It should be similar to Air Canada/United’s fees. You can also call to ask. There is a $150 change fee and $200 cancel fee for Avianca awards unless you have certain LifeMiles+ subscriptions (then it’s free).
Transfer Partners: Amex, Bilt, Capital One, Citi, Wells Fargo

United: 80-88k points + $6-63 in tax/fees. Free changes/cancellations.
Transfer Partners: Bilt, Chase

1) There’s no easy way to use a calendar view to find dates. United is a good option but it will show flights on other airlines such as Lufthansa and Swiss that require a connection.

2) For United, put in destination, # of passengers, flexible dates, business class, then click on “Find flights”.

3) After searching, the calendar view should appear. Find dates with the 80k or 88k awards cost as those are saver awards. (80k if you have United status or if you have a United credit card).

4) Confirm the flight details including if the number of seats you need is bookable, aircraft type, and timing. Then book with your preferred program.

LOT currently flies 787s but the seats are in an older 2-2-2 layout. Seats are lie-flat. They are about to start refreshing their cabins (The Design Air) in 2026 to be more modern and have a 1-2-1 layout. However, I doubt any refreshes will get done in time for these flights.

About Find Flights for Me.

I started the idea of Find Flights for Me back in 2023 to help educate and inspire people to use their credit card points more effectively, with a focus on using points to fly business and first class flights.

When I’m not working on Wall Street or searching for flight deals, you can find me planning for my upcoming wedding, enjoying local restaurants, helping my parents book their next trip, traveling internationally, or visiting friends/family in NYC, Philadelphia, or DC.
