Well, sadly, I have no status. I'm a fly once every year or two kind of gal.
But if you've managed to pull off FIVE seats in J that gives me added hope that I'll be able to pull off 4 seats if I'm patient...
The more I think of it, the more I want to do the pay cash to Hawaii thing and then use the one-way reward seats from Honolulu to Malaysia... that would be soooo perfect if I can find the seats in J...
(Having never had the pleasure of flying in J before, I'm positively swooning at the thought of lay-flat seats... even "angled flat" would be heaven on a long-haul flight compared to economy)
Anyone have any advice for how best to search for available seats? I signed up for ANA and have played around with their search tool a bit... is that the best one? or can I do better with something else?
1st choice plan - 4 J seats from Honolulu to Penang, Malaysia
2nd choice plan - 4 J seats from Winnipeg to Europe to Penang, Malaysia
(not sure if the plan affects what search tool I'm better off using, but I'd like to play around with searching for flights for both options)
