how would you use 300.000 miles?
Hi,
I have 300k+ miles in my topbonus account... what is in your opinion the best way to use them?
I would like to use them for a F/C ( of course F not with AB) flight somewhere and i am looking for ideas.. but maybe there are better ways to use them
Thanks

The mileage program has nothing to do with AB, it is a separate corporation owned by Ethiad. The other question could however be that the depart from OW and this would restrict the use of miles dramatically.

I would fancy that redemption where somebody managed to book a one way to the US via HKG, with a stopover of a few days there, for just 60,000 miles. i wonder in all practicality if it really is possible to do that! Obviously that would be combining AB and CX.

There has been a Memo to all Agents regarding this practice, so this ain´t possible anymore.

Bangkok: Yes, same region like Phuket or Singapore (or Vietnam, Malaysia).
Tokyo: No, one-way on C is 90k, so RT for 2 passengers is 360k miles. Taxes can vary a bit too. Japan is the same region like China, Hongkong, Korea.
Have a look here.
