My guess is, that if this is redeemable with CO miles, then it will be in the same range as U.S. ----> Northern S. America. A Series 5 is 35,000 miles, whereas a Series 5b (Delta Award) is 45,000mi. The interactive reward chart specifically lists French Guiana as one of the Northern S. America countries, so perhaps they took this routing into account already.
CO.com can't search the route. Shocking.

SeatCounter (Don't Have KVS with me at the moment) is showing that the only published Fare Buckets on this route are:
A E G K L N S V Y
E, G and N show zeroed out on most dates, which leads me to believe those are the award classes.

All of a sudden, the GPS on my iPhone thinks I'm in Zeist.

I have to fly BCN-LCY friday AM on an Avro Intl RJ100 jet
I think after that I have flown all the variants of the "funny plane"
I don't remember what variant NW Mesaba used to operate

Looks like the Houston Public Library has full OAGs going back to when I was born. I think I might spend some time after exams are over grabbing some beers and ensuring that my FlightMemory is 100% accurate as to equipment types.
Anyone know if the Bureau of Transportation Statistics in D.C. has kept tail-number records aside from the ones you can get on their website (the top-10 domestic carriers by volume since 1995)? I'd consider taking a trip up to D.C. if one of our Federal Agencies has accurate tail-number records for all commercial flights into and out of the U.S. That stuff has gotta be on microfiche somewhere.

Probably the toughest Tail Numbers for me to get, if I can ever get them, will be my Domestic flights in Mexico from the 80s, as well as my Domestic Honduran flights in 1999. I imagine Europe probably has some Bureaucracy that would cover my European flights from 2002-Present.
