Hi Troy, thanks for the info. I am trying to book low level award CGK-NRT roundtrip, but I am not sure where to look for partner airline availability, especially from CGK. Any idea?

Troy,

I have a question about booking multiple tickets. Delta website allowed me to hold one ticket PVG-JFK but I am having trouble getting the second one through. Website shows it is available but errors out when I try to book it. Suggestions?

Also I thought “LOW” for Asia-US tickets costs 120K but all the tickets I saw marked low on the award calander cost 170K or more. Did I miss something?

Thanks

@Troy
THANK YOU so much for the effort you made at writing this page, you are a great guy.

Have you (or anyone else) figured out a workaround for this: since Delta will not really allow one-way bookings (they charge double points); I want to book 330 days in advance (the trip I want is March 2013, will go on sale in a few weeks) but I cannot book the outbound alone; then I have to sit and wait 2 more weeks, when the Return trip is on sale. By that time, the Outbound flight could be gone. (CO was always sooooo much easier, you could book both OW trips at the 330 day mark, and never have a problem!).

Troy,

I’m looking to book an award on Kenya Airways KQ in Business Class. How may I check for it, do you have any experience? Thanks

Troy: Thanks for your hard work and invaluable insight.

I have 2 quick questions:

1) I’m moving to Viet Nam for a year. What’s the best/cheapest way to get their via sky miles? There are 2 of us. Departure City: ATL.

2) I heard that you can reserve your return trip maximum 6 months out, is this true? Since Delta charges the same for 1 way as round trip and I have to get back to the US after a year. I’d thought if possible, I’d like to use the same ticket?
