I'm trying to do this as a one way since I'm trying to book a multi city and trying to avoid the call center charge. Is it best just to pay the call center and let them handle it since it's a complicated itinarary?
Funny thing.. AA bought QQ and then dumped the RNO to California routes. So, since AA doesn't fly LAX-RNO, which would be a 15K award, you will have to see if you can get an AA award on AS for 25K.
But....... why would you waste 25K, plus the award ticketing fee, to do this?
