Anir NZ: LHR-LAX in C April 2011
Any return C seats on Air NZ to LAX in April? What about other months next year also? I rememeber seeing a thread recently mentioning there was good availability however i know these seats will be snapped up quick.
Many thanks, might need to invest in EF myself at somepoint.

I checked the first seven days and found two redemption seats on NZ1 on April 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 7. Less the following week, but still plenty of options: one available on 9 April, two on 11 and 14 April.
Nothing for the NZ2 return LAX-LHR, but that isn't surprising and there are plenty of other *A options.
Sounds like the way forward

Yes, but none as good i understand. Is AC an option back, or are there any return dates in early May; or late March at a push on ANZ? I actually thought it would be the other way about with the better availability ex-LAX.
Glad to hear though that seats are still there.
Many thanks

Does anyone know if it's possible for BD to have LX seats released to them?
I have a friend travelling LX ZRH-ORD in F this week and my ZRH-LAX is showing 4 F seats available on Expertflyer, so I would like to swap my friend to my flight.
Have mum and aunt travelling LX ZRH-LAX in C the day before with 2 F seats available, which they would like to upgrade to.
I've called pre-travel support but they can't see any of these seats.
Any ideas?

"- M&M shows availability for their FF program only and is no indication of what is available to DC members.
- Ditto for EF.
- ANA shows availability when it applies to partners like DC and is the best source for this."

This is a bit generic: I want to know the best way to check for LX availability. I did several searches (honest!) and am still not sure I understand it. Am I correct in understanding:
- M&M shows availability for their FF program only and is no indication of what is available to DC members.
- Ditto for EF.
- ANA shows availability when it applies to partners like DC and is the best source for this. This will usually be closer to the date of the flight. (I am looking for next April.)

M&M airline availability has been acting weirdly recently. I've just this afternoon managed to book a couple of award seats on FRA-NRT. Loads were showing on ANA, but it's taken a couple of days to get through to someone in the ICC who can see and book them.

Otherwise, may just have to pay for a flight from Florida to EWR.

Air NZ: LHR-LAX-LHR Aug/Sept
Hi,
If somebody could quickly check Air NZ availability to for 2 to LAX(& back) next Aug/Sept for me that would be great. Its a bit away and i have tried some random dates with ANA although cant find anythng yet... Can see some dates in May/June so hopefully seats will be released eventually. Really flexible although keen to only go Air NZ on this route, although what would be the best alternative; United?
As, always -appreciate the help.

BMI DC Redemption flight, Help checking for availability
Fellow FT'ers,
I have been out of the running a few months moving to a warmer place on this planet. ANA has now given up and dont have a flight that I can add to that program to make the redemption checker for for me. I also thought I remember a thread where we could ask about availability but cant find it..
I still remember it is best to check before calling the ICC
Maybe we can set this up as a help thread.
Can someone check for me (and I know it is unlikely so pls dont flame me) if there is any availability in F or C next month:
from SIN to AMS, SIN to FRA or SIN to LHR December 23rd departure, December 27th return. flying days are not flexible (+1 or -1 day max)
TG, Swiss, LH, SQ, TK etc.. (Decent F or C product).
Many thanks,
Globalist.

I can't check for you - but I know a good place to ask!
