USVI-On-Line

Hi everyone! Has anyone used Visa rewards points (bank Visa, not airline Visa) to book your airfare? Were you able to pick your own seats? Were you allowed to do online check-in? The bank's FAQ section is so vague, I can't really make heads or tails of it. I am going to give them a call, but thought I would ask here for "real life" experiences. TIA

There are so many different reward programs and banks may vary from one to the other, but I have used Visa reward points on many trips. You can choose your seat and record your frequent flyer number.
The only problem I have had is that once or twice the information on seat and FF number did not go through to the airline. I recommend calling the airline after a day or so of making your reservation and give them your record locator and check all the data.
