Has anyone else noticed that intra-China awards (that used to book as cheap as 7,000 miles in first class) are not almost three times as much...even on short routes? Now the cheapest routes I can find are 17,500 miles for business or first. Anyone else having the same experience?

I got the Delta Amex Plat in October, but I don't see the companion certificate listed in my account. The card is clearly linked, but no certificate. Does anyone know when this would show up?

Delta Platinum Companion Certificate at Renewal

"Each year, the Companion Certificate will be made available for redemption on delta.com in your renewal month."

so if you just got this card in October, you have ~10 months to go.

Question. Where do you find this certificate on the Delta website?

It should be in your wallet on My Delta, under Credits and Certificates.

I've found it had too many restrictions and fees. Cheaper just to buy the ticket. But that was transcon flights, maybe other destinations are easier.

Is Delta Drunk?

I need to book MDZ-FTE connecting in AEP, and delta.com is quoting me 50k per pax for business space (Z).

I have booked intra-South America awards, and the cost has always been 25k.

If I do a simply search, MDZ-AEP, the cost is 25k (Z Space).

Is Delta charging per segment?

AirFrance.com only displays X awards (economy)... It errors whenever searching for Business. Does anyone have experience booking this?

Which restrictions - only the lower 48, no E fares, must be round trip?

The ticket has to be in certain fare buckets (the lowest ones, other than E).

Your previous post says "Cheaper just to buy the ticket. But that was transcon flights, maybe other destinations are easier." The certificate is for the lower fare bucket tickets (L-V). Are you buying K and S fares a lot and trying to use the companion certificate?
