You don't need a balance to check. You just need to read the bmi sticky for the work-around. ;)

You can use the workaround approach to complete the ANA search even with no ANA points - see elsewhere on the forum...

I checked out a few routings for you. Nil on 12th dec, but MIA-LHR via FRA with LH has 3 seats in biz departing 13 Dec. There is no direct flight with *A carriers, so via FRA is no hardship. 3 seats in C are hard to find though, so if you want those, act fast!!

Cheers,

Would greatly appreciate it if someone could check availability or suggest best-routing for a redemption between BOS and SEA on 9 or 10th September 2011. I'd be doubly grateful if the number of miles required could be clarified? Honeymoon planning was definitely not helped by the ICC!



United have seats in Y on the 0745hr flight BOS-SEA on 9/9 but not 9/10. Its marked as a 'one stop flight', but I don't know the details.

The mileage chart would charge this at 15000 miles per pax, or 7500+50stg (based on a one way ticket)

Happy honeymoon...

No need for your ANA account to have miles in it. Just use AwardNexus.com which uses ANA and has a free verison for FT members.

Hi All,

I'm trying to find a routing from Japan (NRT,KIX,etc) to HNL in August (ideally in C, but would take Y).

The ANA tool is showing no availability; any ideas? I have no problem with taking a stopover somewhere :D

Thanks,

Not much availability NRT-HNL as you said. There is some Y availability going NRT/KIX-GUM-HNL with CO. Also gives you a place to enjoy a stopover ^

There is also MAJ-HNL Y availability everyday that the route is served. If you can find some way getting to MAJ via lots of little islands this could be a possibility too ^

Y Aug.21,30

C Aug.30 HND-HNL seems like the only C day available!!!

Ironically I am on that flight already booked in a C award!

If you can route to OGG/LIH and take a cheap interisland flight, BMI will let you route via LAX/SFO as its the only way to get there :D

Would someone kindly advise any further information on reward availability for;

SIN-BKK - 15th Sept - SQ976 x 2 in Business

ANA shows two reward seats in J but DC call center says "waitlist".

What's the story?

Thanks.

Well I checked in KF and they offer 2 C seats at saver award levels which is a good sign. I guess it is back to the good old call again and try your luck with a different agent.

TG414 flies at almost the same time but has no C seats available so your only option is the earlier TG404 flight if that works for you timing wise. SQ or TG on that route is not much of a difference and actually TG could have the better seat product depending on a/c used.

Thank you - I will try with another agent (I tried two already!)

Yes, I would take the TG flight if available but sadly it is not. The earlier flts don't work because of connections.

Many thanks again for looking ^
