Any idea if AKL-LAX-IST-ASB would be allowed as a Z9-Z8?
AKL-LAX-IST comes up in the Star schedule... but it is 3000 miles longer than via HKG for example.... There are however no seats on AKL-Asia around the days I want... |

I just wanted to point out that it may be hard to convince ICC for the route like IST-FRA-BKK-KUL(stopover)-SIN-HKG as Z2-Z8 award. The KUL stopover is not a normal enroute stopover for IST-HKG. In BKK or in SIN,Yes.
I don't know if you want to fly MS, but IST-CAI-KUL-BKK(or SIN)-HKG can be an option without being serious backtracking. Some SQ flights on SIN-HKG are operated by 77W and 380, which means you cannot get F or C class award on these flights. |
Is this stopover allowed?
Is the following allowed at all, or will I have to book each sector separately?
LAX-JFK with a 4 day stop over and then JFK-LHR? And if so, how would it work in terms of mixing airlines and classes, i.e LAX-JFK with UA First and then JFK-LHR in Business with LX. |

You'll be charged for an F redemption.
Still would be cheaper than booking as two separate bookings ( one First and one Business) would it not? Cheers RAPC. |
Just used the Flight cost calculator so very helpful, but just one more question, can I add on a LAS-LAX sector with a stopover at LAX?
So in other words are two stopovers allowed? Apologies for the “newbie” questions... |

Stopover is fine. You'll be charged for an F redemption. Highest class of service is always charged now.

Don't forget the F can be avoided if LAX-JFK is taken C on UA PS. I have found availability on PS LAX-JFK is quite good (in contrast to SFO-JFK where I have found it harder to come by).

I want to try OZ and NH service. Since i'm based in MOW, to get redemption to NRT/ICN i will have to backtrack via CDG or FRA. Will this routing be allowed ?
|
I know OZ have no fuel surcharge, but I would also consider TK, who have very good flights and lower fuel surcharge then LH
|
Absoutely.

OZ does levy fuel charge.

If you also like TK, then SVO-IST-NRT with TK is a good alternative.
IST-NRT is served by a B77W. A good C product that I can recommend any day. ^
