Good man. The only thing left to do is keep an eye on LH F open up closer to departure date. Can't use LH FCL or a free day room with your UA F tix.
I have yet to burn miles for myself yet, all went to my parents and spoiled my 2 little nieces on trips to YVR every year. My mom was little concerned initially when I cancelled her ORD-HKG F award and replaced it with ORD-MUC-HKG on LH new F. Now she is spoiled
Not trying to hijack this thread but I am anyway

. Right now my mom had a return F HKG-ORD. I saw CO website has HKG-BKK-FRA on TG F and FRA-DUS-ORD on LH F, is this a valid routing and is it worth it? I think this routing will allow my mom to try TG Royal Orchid Spa and LH FCL in FRA and car service. Seat wise I think UA F seat beat both TG 744 F and LH A333 F but the soft product and ground service probably make up for it. What do FT community think?
