So with a giant stroke of luck the EY AUH-JFK flight I've been stalking for months finally opened up an F reward seat, so now I have a much nicer return trip TATL instead of TPAC. This also gets me the 3rd night in Dubai that I was originally aiming for. Sadly I lost my suite upgrade cert (was from 2011) in the process and had to burn a new one, but that was a hail-mary booking anyway.

So my flight data:

(AUS-DFW-YVR-HKG-BKK)
Arrive EY403 BKK-AUH 6/14 11:55a
- 1 night at the Hyatt Capital Gate Abu Dhabi
- driving to DXB with From NYC 6/15 (morning)
- 3 nights at the Park Hyatt Dubai
Depart UA976 DXB-DOH 6/18 5:20p
(DOH-AUH-JFK/LGA-DFW-AUS)

Can't wait...
