Asiamiles Redemption on AY
I was wondering if anyone has any experience redeeming one way Business class on AY using Asiamiles, I need to fly between London and HEL, I can get it on BA but I was hoping to try AY.

One-way awards are not available on AY, as a simple look at the Asiamiles site would tell you.

Anyway I normally don't check the Asiamiles website because I never redeem outside CX and I usually just call MPO for that. Like I said I was just wanted to check the availability because EF doesn't show any on AY, when I tried using the CX website, it was only offering BA as I've mentioned above. It's all clear now. Thank you very much.

I met the same thing as you did...
When I check CX website for AY reward, non AY flight showed up, even I trying many different dates. However, when I checked the reward seats on BA, there were plenty of AY availabe. Thus, I think this is the issue of CX website. I suggest check it on BA and then call MPC to book it.
