United miles redemption: Nonstop Flights: Houston to Tokyo (45k economy) or (65k Premium Plus) miles one-way +$6 tax/fees round-trip [Feb / April] – United

United has NONSTOP One-way flights from Houston (IAH) to Tokyo (NRT), for 45k points in Economy or 65k points in Premium Plus. Both have +$6 in taxes and fees.

Of these two, 65k for Premium Plus is the better deal in my opinion. You get the larger seat in a 2-3-2 cabin, similar to a domestic first class seat (not lie-flat) and better cabin service.

United may, at any time and without notice, change, stop or end this offer.

I’m focusing on NONSTOP routes only. I know you can often find similar redemption values for routes with a connection.

Avoid August the hottest month in Japan. I’ve only been during August once, for Tanabata, and that was all it took for me to never go during that time.
Late September into October is nice however.
