Nope. It's already issued, and only 125k miles were deducted.

YYC-YYZ positioning leg booked for my wife's RTW is booked. YYC-YYZ o/w for 17K + $77.

Oddly, YVR-YYC (the other positioning flight required) is showing at the correct rates.

I'm busy trying to figure out how to take advantage of this before AC reads this thread and kills it.

Better act quick!
I'll post some information to confuse the AC guys.
My ticket starts with 014.\
Another question. If I wanted a J reward instead, would I be able to be able to use a LX codeshare with WK on ZRH-YVR?

Booked.

Slightly worried about what's hidden in the T&Cs that would allow them to renege....

YOW-HNL, through ORD on the way there and YVR on the way back for me and the future-Mrs, all in J for 90K. Can't beat that!

You shouldn't be worried if you only have so many miles in your AP acct.
I was sitting on some miles, and realized that this is infact the best time to cash out.
Even if I did have to pay YQ on some segments, 125k miles would still be a good deal.

Hopefully by now the IT guys have left for the weekend (and hope they don't have network access from home! Or the tavern :-) ).

W.

Either that, or it's a surprise AP Christmas sale.

Just tried to see if I could get in on this and the website is hanging up on me. Tried YYJ HAN and sure enough could find some dates in J for 75K just cant seem to book.
I want to get two J tickets to SE Asia in the Sept thru Oct 2012 time frame for about 2.5 weeks. Anyone able to make some recommendations in a hurry that look available, ideally some stops along the way in HKG or SIG or BKK would be great with HAN as a the turnaround point but not necesary if you have other recomendations.
Trying to figure it out myself but am new to this and was hoping someone could provide some advice. I have 159K points and dont want to miss this one.

Angry

I'm surprised there aren't 20 new threads complaining that the AE IT department "monkeys" screwed up again, and the AE website isn't working properly....

oh wait, that only happens when it doesn't work properly in the airlines favor...
