Hi all flyers,

I need some advice.

I'm thinking of redeeming my AP on an award seat on a Star Alliance partner flight, in my case either a business or first class on Singapore Airlines, flying from LHR to Sydney.

Has anyone got any experience regarding redeeming AP on *alliance, and how easy is it to get an award seat? Do I book through Air NZ or the airline I want to fly with?

Looking at the redeeming chart on Air NZ website, it looks like it takes 1740 dollars for business and 2380 for first class. It seems like a fairly good deal, I wonder if there's a catch?

Anyway, many thanks for sharing and advices.
