Award Booking on China Southern
Has anyone been able to book awards on CZ after they left sky team? Also, are tickets ex-China part of the ticket in person rule? |

I just booked a CZ award and could only get an AF confirmation code and ticket #.
Neither works on CZ's website. How can I access my booking on CZ's site? |

CZ's website is awful. Also, they often (always?) use their own separate PNR (VFNR or whatever they call it). You can get it here if you have your ticket number.
-- Edit: I should add that the ticket number visible on the Flying Blue website (13 digits starting with 074...) is not compatible with the e-ticket verification system on the MU website. |
Use : www travelsky.com /tsky/
I have put space (or it did not work) Translate with google translate, Sometime ticket 006, 074 will work, sometime not.... |

I am having exactly the same issue with an award booking on MU. I have the Flying Blue confirmation code and a ticket number, but no way to access the booking on China Eastern's website (it's a domestic flight within the PRC). Any advice?

MU's website is even worse. I rarely get it to work properly (their app is not even worth a mention). The best bet in my experience is to call them. And definitely talk to their English-speaking agents. They might be hard to understand sometimes, but they get things done, unlike their Chinese-only colleagues who take forever. |

The last 4 posts are about MU, not CZ.

AF agent was able to get me a different confirmation code (6 digits, alphanumeric), but he could only provide one ticket #. So no one knows how to check CZ award bookings, except maybe to call CZ directly? |

One "tricky" thing with award ticket with CZ or MU, is you must have your passport # (or an ID) put in the reservation. If it is not there, it screew up (even sometime it is a nightmare at airport with MU (less with CZ)). The ONLY way to be sure it is there, is to CALL |

I believe the website you linked to takes only CZ ticket #s . The ticket # AF gave me is different - I believe it's an AF ticket #.

Even you fill up everything .
The problem is the AF/KL/DL system did not update "correctly" the Chinese airline system. I have some bad experience with some award ticket. I suggest you call the airline to be sure your ID (can be your passeport) is there. Most of the time, it is not there. Have your ID add BEFORE you go to airport (or if you like to run between the Chinese airline and the AF/KL/DL desk (and if is no help desk because it is a small airport.... ---> nightmare !!!)). The Chinese airline will not issue ANY boarding pass before the airline who give you the award ticket have put your ID. |
