that is what im going to do. as i think LH has decent premium cabin bonuses.

I think before you start counting your eggs Id make sure they honor this.

seems a little toooo cheap.

I thought HIP checks were discontinued this year? or do i have it confused with SOTO/SITI?

OK, I've been working on this for a half hour and have still come up with squat on both ual.com & Expedia. I've plotted in SFO => SYD => AKL => SFO and simply SFO => SYD for multiple dates in August and September. Am I just having a run of bad luck???
