You could try to convince a WorldPerks agent of this, but I think you'd fail. Geographically, you might be right, but NWA has a region called "Indian Subcontinent" that is priced differently. And I agree with that. It shouldn't cost the same miles to go to Beijing (techinally Southern Asia per WorldPerks redemption rules) as it does to go to Delhi.

That would be one option, although it's really not that hard to do a few mouse clicks to change dates around. If you search by standard (PerkPass) levels, nwa.com should show you a monthly calendar with dates that are available. I'm not sure exactly of the process to get the calendar to show up, but I think you have to search by PerkPass and be logged into the Award Travel search engine with your WorldPerks account.

The other option is to call the agent. They can probably give you a decent estimate on how things are looking over a certain date range (a few weeks?) and may be able to find things for you that nwa.com cannot.

Good luck.
