I'm faily sure you can find a routing with only 2 stops on the return - just need to be creative. Have you checked CDG-YUL/YYZ or CPH-YYZ?
Ok, so I'm clear,
So is it based on R space, or based on unsold J? For example using the priority reward search I can't find the direct AC56 to DXB next July in J. Does that mean I just need to call AP and they will pull from the J inventory for $30, or do I need to noodle through EF to find R space for my family of 4?
