Did you move to MSP recently?

I have flown DE to FRA many times on AS awards (and revenue). 55k was a good deal on the 767 and a great deal on the new Airbus. But sadly now it’s 70k from the west coast. Not bad if it is available.

(yikes!)

Sadly I couldn’t work out if I could fly via MSP for 70k on your 6/14 flight example or if award availability limits would have required a separate revenue flight…

what the heck are they doing that Safari on the iPad couldn’t handle?

That is nice Condor gives decent value for MSP, sucks for SEA though.

Took me about 5 minutes of searching to find a different redemption. The WiFi at 35,000 feet slowed me down. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyways, too bad people can’t find anything, I’d liquidate your AS miles and use a different program. I hear Delta offers superb redemption opportunities for business class out of Seattle at low mileage.
