No direct flights from FRA to MCI, let alone any international destination to MCI. For AA the connections to MCI are DFW or ORD overwhelmingly.
Round trip FRA - MCI is ~$650 . If you "don't fly much", don't fly via award travel if the ticket is only $650 round trip. Buy the ticket directly from the airline.
What exactly is a "good deal" as the miles required for the flight vary little if at all to / from FRA?
yes, so excited the award miles rate dropped overnight, since I posted this yesterday! Just what I needed. Booked the flight I wanted with miles leftover now! YAY!
