DFW to KEF question
Haven't ever had to do this, but it looks like the awards flights from DFW to KEF require changing airports in NY - coming into LGA or EWR, then leaving from JFK to LHR then on to KEF. Am I responsible for getting myself from LGA/EWR to JFK, or do they have some kind of shuttle? If not then I guess I'll have to swallow the extra $200 or so per ticket in fees.
I miss the days when the fees were reasonable. Haven't used my miles in YEARS...now the fees are like 1/2 the price of just buying the ticket outright!
