I have been tasked with the grueling chore of designing a weekend getaway from Dallas using Membership Rewards points.
I know! I know!
It is pure torture!
I live 20 minutes from DFW airport and would like to come up with something fun, fabulous and a bit off the beaten path.

If I were you I would go on a cruise to the caribbean on the Oasis of the Seas. I’m going in August for the first time and I’ve heard great things. You should go by plane to Florida and then board the ship and eat lots of good food, dance, and have fun!

Where should I go? Well Im from TX also, and I say travel Route 66 through Oklahoma
Should I travel by train, plan or automobile? automobile, its great to stop and experience different places
What should I do when I get there? See all the famous places that come with Route 66…the movie CARS has alot of the forgotten places.
I say fly to Utah and then roadtrip it to southern Utah for some canyoneering! From Zions Park to Canyonlands to Cedar Mesa to San Rafael Swell there are many unique and off the beaten path areas to explore. Have a guide take you and teach you about the many historic (outlaws!) and archeological (Native Americans!) finds you will see. Then find a bed and breakfast and relax your sore muscles away.
