For 115K AA miles, you could get a oneworld award with an itinerary like the following in Business Class, if award seats were available:

Jfk-cdg, ory-mad-ath-bud-ams-bud-skg, ath-mad-jfk

Since oneworld awards do not permit you to stop over more than once in a city, but do permit one open jaw on the itinerary, you would fly AMS-SKG, and have to make your way from SKG to ATH at your own expense.


I think my wife would die if I tried dragging her through all those airports. LOL

Let's try a simpler trip , and I will see about ATH AMS using one of the good consolidators we have here in ATH where I am at the moment.

Let's just say JFK CDG with 5 day stopover in Paris the onto ATH mid April early may depending on PH PARIS. VENDOMME availability , and then back ATH to JFK or EWr for that matter late june early July

DL has a nonstop ATH JFK daily but i doubt i could get low tier J but I wouldn't mind a 1 stop return if i had to , if I could get all that for around 100k + taxes without any YQ.

Then I have to get my wife from ATH to CDG and hopefully we can return CDG same flight or roughly same time time to ATH

Thanks for your help
