nobody with an answer for me?

e: ICC says not valid. Most direct would be only JRO-ADD-Europe ... this was not my intention

Just because the only way to get F cabin is to fly your proposed route does not make it a legit routing. You are still bound by the normal routing rules (which are very favorable in the case of BD)

Would this fly as a Z1-Z4? - Can't find AMS-EWR direct

AMS-VIE-JFK/EWR-EZE

Yes, if they can't find AMS-JFK.

Wanna redeem the last of my DC miles. Wondering if I could do SIN-SEA via Europe? My planned itinerary is SIN-BKK-CDG-FRA-SEA at 12141 miles versus the most direct which would be approx 8500-9000 miles.

Anyone did something like this before?

Does anyone know by chance the valid routings to go from SYD to LAX?

Since no availabilty in either business or first class going direct or via AKL, I found routings via BKK and/or PEK.

But the ICC doesn't allow it, they would split it up in Z9-Z8/Z8-Z3

Anyone an idea?

I tried the NZ 767 business class product twice last year and the seat felt more narrow than a domestic Qantas coach seat, so even with availability I would rather pass.

But thanks

SYD-BKK-LAX is a published routing for TG. I flew once, although not on BD miles

You could try to argue with them.

Managed VIE-JFK (stop) EWR-EZE in C for miles+cash: 18,500 miles and £330.

Stopover is for 4 months.

I would like to do IST-NRT via ICN on an award ticket

There is a direct service from IST-NRT though. Will I be forced to take this service or can I request a via ICN and a 24 hour stop over OR does this count as 2 separate bookings?

thanks guys.

It should be OK and you can take a stopover more than 24 hours if you wish.

Would this be allowed?
PER-oJNB-LVI
And if so, would it be a Z9-Z6 or Z9-Z5 redemption?
(Zambia is not listed in either zone 5 or zone 6)

Also, would this be allowed?
CPT-xJNB-DAR,NBO-xCAI-ABS
As a single Z6-Z5 redemption?
