I am not looking for bumps, unless I can get to BKK about the same time as originally scheduled. I need to be in DEL for a wedding on the 18th and back in GPT for work the 20th and back to DCA on the 23rd for Thanksgiving break.
I I am about 600 muiles from Plat and I will have made it to Plat by the end of the year. So I decided to burn some miles. Award tickets to DEL (90,000 for WSTD) are extremely hard to come by. That's why I picked BKK (60/120K for WSTD/DSTD) and connect to DEL from BKK. I get to BKK at 11:30 P.M. and flight to DEL leaves at 2:40 a.m. I am stil trying to get standard award to DEL via BOM or BLR using other partners. If I get WBC on award ticket, I don't mind burning the extra miles. I leave DEL and 8:45 A.m. on the 19th arr in BKK at 2:00 P.M. I wish I was getting into BKK later as BKK-NRT departs at 6:00 a.m. on the 20th.
It's already a complicated trip and I doubt I can accomodate a bump.
