Yeah, she metioned that flight, but why do that when I could enjoy CX the whole way there. :-D</font>
That's true, but unfortunately award travel does not guarantee how the airline is going to get you to your destination, they don't even guarantee that they will get you on any specific day, so when you have a specific date(s) in mind and the airline finds a routing, it's a big plus. If you are totally flexible then get on a phone and tell the agent to keep on checking till s/he finds something, but if you only have a certain window then grab what's available right now. With only 1 flight a day (12 F seats) it may prove to be a tough award ticket, unless you get it way ahead of time.
