In regards to US air. They have certain routes where they offer the same flight number to another destination after stopping in PHL or CLT.

I was looking at MCO and even though the flight has seats to PHL then down to CLT but the one flight number does not show any availability.

Basically my question is has anyone successfully found seats on these one stop flights? Also what other destination do they offer the same flight number to?

I am just looking at getting another flight from PHL in biz so wanted the single flight numbered flights.

I have never found 1 flight number flights and more often than not recently, I am finding zero availability on DUB-PHL. What dates are you looking for?

SWISS Award availability reflects availability for Miles & More members. Availability to members of partner airlines may be less.

It shows seats on expert flyer, but not on KVS. Which is correct?

The SWISS Award inventory shown on ExpertFlyer reflects the full Miles & More member availability. If you are a M&M member, then it is correct.

Any tips for DUB-XXX-YVR in June, returning July. 2 persons, two weeks. Economy is OK. Ideally a stop (long connection) on the east coast to break up the journey. Not too keen on the 752 service from DUB to IAD or EWR.

Thanks,

Aidan

Good luck with that! You dont want CO, the only other option is US via PHL or CLT and I would take CO anyday over US.

There are 2 'sets' of Award Availability on LX/LH: One (more favourable) is for M&M Members only and another one is for the partners. Only the KVS Tool supports both 'sets':

Looking for two seats in C LHR-NRT in late December. Many days seem to have one seat but none with two. If I book one first, what are the chances that ANA will release another one?

Thanks

taff_2003 Mar 2, 2012 2:40 am

Does anyone know how far in advance UA tend to release C seats to the *A system? I see they tend to release F and Y seats at 331 days like clockwork, however they don't seem to release C seats at the same time. Thanks.

PPT
 
I have been looking for a while on I Inventory on the PPT-AKL route...
Is there really never ever any seat available in I? I could find some X seats but never I.... any Chance to get I seats on this route?

Thanks for your advises ....

NBO-CAI-CPH
 
Would appreciate a bit of help

Trying to get 2 awards from NBO-CPH or somewhere in europe from where i can get to cph.

I see 2 seats on Egypt air leaving on april 13 (04.30 via CAI and on to CPH) Not that this is an ideal way of "wasting" diamond club miles but should certainly be better then KQ in Y. However when calling BMI they say that there are no seats available. Can anybody confirm that these seats are in fact there?

Thanks

Mogensen Mar 7, 2012 4:14 pm

Sorry mind checking apr 12 and 13

Air NZ is very stingy on awards to PPT- you have be VERY flexible (I mean a matter of months). Use United.com's calendar function to see which dates have award availability, but don't be surprised if you find nothing in I for the whole 330 day period.

I'm looking for 2 seats in C or F between west coast USA (LAX, SFO, PHX, not fussy) and London. Don't mind connecting in Europe, Zurich etc. but would prefer to avoid connecting in East Coast USA. Would also prefer to avoid United if possible(may not be).

Date of travel is 13th or 14th of July.

If anyone finds anything that would be amazing but I dont think there is anything without connecting East Coast :(

Thx.
