Is it possible to book a one-way redemption on VS using DC miles, or is it only possible to book return flights?

Thanks.

I'm only new here so will understand if someone tells me to bu66er off!!

seatcounter is offline, so don't have any way of checking for reward availability.

Looking to go M&C, LHR - SYD in Business ideally on SQ, but would also take LH or Thai, NZ at a push.

From 25th October +/- 3 days until 18th Nov +/- 3 days.

If anyone can see any availability I'd be grateful!

I recommend AwardNexus because it's the only, to my knowledge, free tool to access ANA *A award availability data. (They still have a free membership for FT members). Not only that, it's *A search is also more powerful then some of the paid tools that also screen scrape ANA. The site is run by member ckpeter who has been very helpful to the FT community, so I like to give his efforts a ^ where I can since he's not a big self promoter.

There's alway the ANA website.

Nothing in principle against paid-for search tools, I use a couple myself and appreciate the benefits of a more comfortable interface and added 'power', but they're not essential.

Good evening friends. Would appreciate any 'insider' info on the following:

UA900 SFO-FRA / LH962 FRA-EDI in J

13, 14, 15 or 16 February.

ANA hasn't provided much hope, but just wanted a second opinion from those with more trustworthy tools at their fingertips.

Many many thanks in advance.

Nothing on UA900 on your dates, but at least 2 C redemption seats showing on LH455 SFO-FRA on each of 14, 15 and 16 February.

I'm afraid that EF isn't anymore positive on that score... although it looks like economy redemptions should be possible.

There's J availability on LX39 SFO-ZRH on 13, 14 & 16 though... Perhaps you can persuade the ICC to tag on a ZRH-FRA-EDI on to that?

Cheers,
