1000p costs about €13, so I recommend this as well.
You need to be more specific if you want a guesstimate.

If you do not want to check in bags, my guess is they could check you in and give you a BP 36 hours before your flight, as that is when the flight opens for OLCI, but this is just a guess. (24 hours for USA)

On your day of flight, any time. For morning flights, the previous evening.

Hi all,
I am looking to book a ticket from SIN-LHR via HEL with AY+ points. I can see availability on the SIN-HEL sector but biz availability from HEL-LHR requires an 8hr connection for an A321 aircraft which is not worth waiting for.
Is it possible to book an AY award with the SIN-HEL sector in Business then HEL-LHR in Economy? This reduces the connection time to 90 minutes plus connects onto the A350.
Thanks!

On a side note, the AY systems seem to act really strange... it couldn't do the short 90 minute connection but there was award availability in Biz for both sectors. Very confusing but managed to work around it in the end.
