My husband and I are planning a 2 week trip next spring, visiting Provence and Barcelona. Since we want to fly on Saturdays, and we are using United Saver miles, availability might be limited, especially as we get closer to summer.
Right now, we are looking at a two week trip, sometime between mid April to mid June, but ideally around Memorial day to have the extra day off. We don't want to go too early and have cool temperatures and lots of rain, but don't want to go too late with crowds of people or really hot weather (95+). We don't mind reasonably hot weather, and may rent a house in Provence for a week with a pool if we go in late May or June. For those of you who have been to Provence or Barcelona, any suggestions for the "ideal" two week window?
That being said, we are looking to book our miles tickets as possible, while we see award availability.
