Consolidator can issue this ITIN in bulk fare, therefore 1k will earn 50% flown miles RDM+100% bonus = 100% flown = 17.5k RDM which worth around $200 maybe?

30,000 miles + $600 co-pay each way. Plus you're on the waitlist based on status. R inventory ahead of time is almost always 0.

30k miles ~ $400 plus $600 = $1000 each way or $2000 RT. But these days one can easily find a decent trip to Asia in P for ~$2500..:)

11/1-11/3
 
Anyone flying LAX-SIN on 11/1 and back on 11/3?

I'm flying to SIN and then hoping back on the plane a few hours later to head back to LAX. Wish me luck. :p

Yep. Been waitlisted for over 2months as a 1K for the flight that is now less then a month out. Would be really nice to clear to get into the Polaris Lounge. Everyday seems like another seat gets taken on the map.

I'd consider joining but would have to rearrange some work meetings. I'd also have to tack on a DEN-LAX segment but can do that for sub $200 which makes this a good option being based in Denver.

Hopefully you can rearrange your meetings. Let me know if you book this!

It's probably better to create a wiki with dates people are traveling. I'll try and do it using the previous poster's info.

I know what you mean. I presume you are WL utilizing your GPU. I just cleared my SFO-HKG for 10/19 (convention traffic) and am still WL for SIN-LAX for 10/30. Generally, SIN-SFO-SIN are tough to clear. Been on it couple times, P fare mostly and other time W fare, I cleared only twice so far this year (1-change date, the other departing on Chinese New Year-3rd day from SIN). Haven't gotten a good read on LAX-SIN yet. Best of Luck

If you can tolerate 17hrs each way in a CRJ200 size seat, then you'll be fine.

I've done two roundtrips to SIN in E+ and I survived it wasn't that bad middle seat was empty both times

Taking a couple baby aspirins at departure can help with dvt aspect of that torture..
