I normally fly YVR-BKK (and then on to Hanoi once I pick up the latest visa), so I guess Air Canada and Thai have service through Narita?
What is this about getting 35,000 extra miles if I fly early in 2002? I've got a trip planned for around mid-January, returning 3-4 weeks later. Would this qualify me. Let's see, 35,000 + about 18,000 = 53,000, putting me already over! Wow! I'm so Cathay-centric, it would take at least 3 RTs to get to the same point with Cathay, normally.
Lately, I'm flying J more than before, but it kind of depends upon the employer, sometimes I fly Y (consulting).....Say 50/50 at this point, with J being the next 3 round trips....
It sounds like it's worth trying out.
Final question, does anybody know any competitive travel agents in YVR? I know they can't match BKK prices for J, but I've got to be as frugal as I can....
