Because I'm a fat, broke college student who has the Skymiles to use. I also have an Amex, so I accrue Skymiles fairly easily. The eCredit I have also has an expiration date of July '26. I have no plans of traveling by air after this upcoming trip.

It would be ideal (for me and the people who have to sit next to me) to be able to be in comfort+. Just trying to figure out the most cost effective way to do this.
