LAX-FCO (open jaw) VCE-CDG-LAX for two in business, all nonstops.

200k miles plus $368. Could have saved $90-$100 by doing it in the reverse direction but wanted the nice AZ seats for the red-eye and leave the AF A380 for the daytime flight.

Couldn't ticket it on line. After 100 minutes on hold the first time and 40 minutes on hold the second time when I asked them why I couldn't ticket it, the threat of a third eternity on hold while they switched me to Internet support made my resolve to save the $50 on hold.

Even at $368 (instead of $238), I was happy, managed to roll the hold on the outbound until the return came into the booking horizon. Otherwise, another $300 for this no-status on Delta person.
