Ok so lets make sure I understand this correctly. If I fly from JFK to EZE on AA award. I then can fly from AEP to MDZ on the same 30K award? Btw the AEP-MDZ flight in the afternoon is only $70.
Sounds great but I was really trying to avoid the 1 hour transfer from EZE to AEP and killing my entire day by traveling. But at this point beggars can't be choosers I guess.
