Well as the saying goes ... you learn SOMETHING new from FT each days. And this is my learning curve for today.

Wow, this business about mileage accrual and redemption never cease to amuse me. I am really amazed to hear that even ozstamp does not know something (I am not at all cynical here)

Not only is there a 75K Biz Air China award SYD to China possible, but UA on phone just tells me that is common rated to Mongolia as WELL as Beijing, (???) saving us the $US450 each I thought we needed to pay for Beijing-Ulan Bator.
Agent told me the Air China partnership is "new" - anyone know when it came on stream?

I use to live in ULN for 3 years and I envy you for being able to go there for Naadam. July-early September is by far the best time to visit Mongolia.

You will have a wonderful time there. Just avoid dranks.

BTW, does anyone know if we could redeem/earn portion PEK-ULN route? It would be nice to do that though.
