All on VA except for LAX-SAN. Two tix in biz-class at 80k miles each.
On other dates, I noticed return options with KE and CZ.
Nice that Delta finally has award booking functionality on its website.
Did you search for awards to/from any other NZ airport?
Did you want the long layover in SYD or not have a choice? For instance, if you flew out of AKL, maybe you wouldn't have had the long layover?
Also, is an award to Oceania a better bang for the buck than TATL awards using DL SkyMiles?
