Hi..I'm hoping that Distancia will have found my membership valid before march 20th and I'll be set...but do you think you could email me the exact info concerning the best possible way i can do this? I'm sorry to bother you but I'm not sure what the 15k means..I can use mileage from American if necessary but I'd rather just pay and go for it...thank you, ster

I've had some interest in my sub $1400 +15K CO miles = million mile run. All of my flights have credited except for one (UIO-LIM, although LIM-UIO did credit, same class of service). It should credit any day now. I have tried to re-book the trip(to see if I could), but Travelocity doesn't seem to want to help. I'll summarize a couple of hints here...
MIA-SJO-BOG (Lacsa)
BOG-LIM (Avianca)
LIM-UIO-LIM (Aces) for $320.
The trick? Requested MIA-SJO-BOG-UIO-LIM, and one of the choices for the 3rd leg was BOG-LIM-UIO on Avianca-Aces. Travelocity won't do this today...but keep trying
LIM-CUS-LIM (TacaPeru)
LIM-GYE was cheaper when booked together. ~$480?
GYE-PTY-BOG (Copa) is only about $220 (Don't use PTY-BOG portion)
I used 15K for PTY-GUA-MGA as these were expensive segments
GUA-SAL-GUA (Taca, Aviateca) was $200
MGA-MIA was cheaper when I booked, $250.
So, that was that...it did take a lot of playing around on Travelocity. In the end my Travel Agent booked it and knocked another $10 or $20 off, I'm not sure how.
Good luck!
