Thanks, benz3000 and rkkwan. Y is way too expensive to worth it then...

Thanks, thepla, how many Amex miles did you transfer? Sadly I don't have that many Amex miles to transfer to.

I am tempted take an easy way out to just use all my 240,000 miles to book a NWA Award roundtrip on BF.

Just received the 6 System-wide Upgrades Certs, need to research on that more. I guess after flying so much last year, NWA didn't forget about me...

I am not sure of the miles; I seem to remember 15,000 each way. I also think I had a co-pay of a couple hundred dollars.

I did price out some Asia trips using "U" class system wide upgrades and the price was around $1900 with plenty of "U" available.

You should also be able to get WBC for 120,000 miles to Asia.
