I did see waitlists for ANA - 315k miles +$1350.... Am I too late trying to find reasonable award fares or too early in my search? I have approx 380k Chase UR points to use - is this enough? Are the days of finding Biz Class seats to BKK under 100K RT gone? I have checked SFO-BKK as well - not any better. Also - when I look on ExpertFlyer I can see 90% of the BizClass seats are free... Any advice is welcomed! Please Help! THX.
Getting
3 off business class low cost saver/standard awards (~award chart) ~4 months out is being hopeful. So left with the higher cost dynamic awards. The "3 off" is the big issue.
But does depend on the ffp's you are a member of now.
Is BKK the destination or some where esle in Thailand?
The more self imposed restrictions the harder it will be
A broad guide. But does not consider availability --->
