Does DL have a partnership with BD?

I am seeing a JFK-CDG-LHR-JNB-SIN-DPS option where LHR-JNB flight is a BD flight # operated by SA.

Nice if you care to spend a day in NBO and JNB.
What is the total airfare for this routing?

No, but it shows confirmed in Expedia. Nothing to worry about?

LHR-SIN SQ (A380?)
SIN-DPS SQ
DPS-SIN SQ
SIN-LHR SQ (A380?)
LHR-CDG AF

Thanks.

Don't worry about it. When the deal is gone, call Thai and check. If you have a ticket number you are good to go.

I won't call just nervous. Especially since KVS shows now info on Flight 432 on THAI from DPS to BKK...

Thanks.
Allowable, yes. Perhaps a lack of D class availability on SQ. Try NZ HKG-LHR or vv.

That's what I got too.

That's on ITA though. I am still just looking for routing.

Routing through CPT (SA LHR-CPT on BD codeshare) also available, though it initially looks like you can't stay there for more than a couple hours if you want to fly on SQ (CPT-JNB-SIN-DPS). Price goes up to $2450+.

This truly is an incredible deal, but I am going to have to sleep on it tonight. I hate gambling on a great fare like this, but I have been traveling all year and can't really spend another month hopping from continent to continent. But boy do I love FT!

For KLM fans, there are also longhauls available from AMS-BKK. JL availability to NRT as well, though I think that was mentioned a few pages back.

For all those interested, I also got BOM and FRA to work.

JFK-CDG-BOM-ICN-DPS-KIK-CDG-JFK all in J for $2,027.50

JFK-CDG-FRA-TPE-DPS-ICN-CDG-JFK all in J for $1,956.80
or if you want that A380 leg
JFK-CDG-FRA-TPE-DPS-SIN-CDG-JFK all in J for $2,050.70

Or for those that want CX
JFK-CDG-FRA-HKG-DPS-HKG-CDG-JFK $1,988.50

Going back to an older poster--does anyone know if this is actually an error fare, or what is it?

I thought you were a United person. This won't get you any miles on UA.

I'm a SkyTeam person too. But you can rack up quite a bit of * miles on this trip by using SQ and SA.

You can backtrack for more mileage to ATL, IAH, SEA, LAX, and SFO from JFK. All AF metal though to CDG...
