First Time Redemption (need help!)

Hi

I was wondering if anyone can help me. Trying to redeem a load of BMI miles I've got. Never redeemed before so learning the ropes (slowly!) of the ANA tool, ITA software etc. However I'm not coming up successful for the following

Journey: Belfast/DUB to California, preferably depart to SFO and return from LAX. Depart Sept 9th/10th/11th/12th and return 13/14 days later, ie Sept 23rd/24th/25th/26th.

Passengers: 2

Class: Preferably C as understand that's a far better way to use miles, but open to Y if not available.


Many many thanks if anyone can assist

Maybe asking the impossible.

Trying to go to the USA around the 30th July for 10 days. Flexible 2 days each way. My ideal was to go to LAX or SFO and back, but now just getting to ORD or MIA would be good.

Trouble is I've left it late and there are four of us wanting to fly in C.

Tough One.... EDI-ACA in C

Hello,

Looking for some help with flights to ACA for my parents. Despite being far, with a host of similar if not better destinations closer to home this is where they have set their sights on for a holiday at the end of Oct for 11 days(flexible though).

I have searched award nexus, although I can find no options to ACA on any date -despite their being one or two *A options that fly into here. I can get availability to MEX on LH in C(EDI-FRA-MEX) however that is the best i can find. Had a look at purchasing a flight from MEX to ACA however it is coming up at 200pp for what looks like a short journey. Does anyone have any better ideas?

Many thanks

Route via the USA? CO serves ACA from EWR and IAH, US from PHX.

Im trying to redeem a flight on UA or US using BMI miles but it says to ring a UK based 800 number. Does anyone know if there is an equivalent phone number for the states? Im not sure I can reach that UK based 800 number from here (USA). Thanks

Only the UK number. The UK national number you can call from US is in the sticky on the main page.

Thanks.

I did wonder if a *A option via the US would work however ANA/Award Nexus gave me no options. Although C on a US carrier would not be as great as LH, at least that would get us from GLA/EDI > ACA with just one stop over. What would be the best way to search for availability(in Oct)?

Cheers
