Booked trip for two using CZ availability in Business.

6/22 - LAX-CAN (on A380 product)
6/24 - CAN-BKK

7/6 - SIN-CAN
7/6 - CAN-LAX (again on A380)

120,000 Skypesos + a moderately offensive $375 taxes/fees each

Was (of course) unable to find any low availability for myself from either DAY, CVG, or LEX to LAX. None for SO either from BDL, JFK, LGA, EWR or PVD... So will have to either pay for that ticket or use another airline to get out to LAX.

Have an option to fly KE back, but based upon what I can tell, their 777-200ER business class is an inferior hard product compared to the new China Southern A380 (angled lie flat vs flat) Anyone confirm that?

Also, I've been told that I'm unable to select a seat on the A380 flights on China Southern to and from LAX. Delta won't load any seat maps, and DL SM agent was unable to give me anything like a confirmation number for CZ.

While there, I'm planning on picking up some flights (presumably on a regional LCC) from BKK-USM-HKT-SIN. Looks like I can find something around $300 with directs between them all. Any other options for patching this into the redemption?

Thanks all!
