Thanks, I guess it was too good to be true.

I get points playing credit card games but then sometimes using them is a challenge, especially away from SkyTeam. There used to be great USA domestic AA redemptions with Avios but that changed about 8 months ago. Now they are poor, double the points.

I’ve taken several 6 hour economy class flights on single aisle jets and lived, but never 7-1/2 hours, that’s new. Noting Aerolopa shows 32” pitch behind the exit rows starboard side so will aim for those. (Alaska Airlines has the same feature but on the other side.). 30.5” pitch on an overnight flight is torture, and that’s all the other economy seats.

Wish these Avois redemptions did not have such high fees, but $250 in fees return is a lot less than $1000, and twice.

Delta flies A330 nonstops both directions, what I do to use points.
