Booking Tickets from the Dulles "Around the World" promotion
All I got out of this promotion was one measely regional award, but I'd prefer to use it as oppose to let it go to waste, so what are the tricks to booking it.
It seems to be ver restrictive: Booked in XY, Saturday night stay required, 800 miles or less from origin to destination, must be booked (or is it travel completed) by sometime in 12/05. But is is transferrable (but, of course, not sellable or barterable).
So can these be booked online somehow, or do I have to go through the domestic awards desk? And if I want to give it to my sister or brother-in-law, can I just give them the cert and go from there, or do I need to actually book their flights for them?
Also, the 800-mile rule. What if I want to go from Miami to Atlanta? That's less than 800 miles, but I'd have to connect in IAD and/or ORD, which are more than 800 miles from MIA. Is that bookable?
