Best business class redemption program for PHX-BOM?
 

Have miles with a lot of different carriers and looking for the best business class redemption deal PHX-BOM.


Also are there any deals for a 3 yo child where I'm not paying full fare (just turned)?


Thanks!

When are you looking for? you state you have miles on a lot of airlines but which do you have the most.

Well it looks like you missed the British Air Fare mistake which was for a full Y fare where you could have easily upgraded into biz class. BA offered some coupons and I think a few people actually flew it and BA cancelled the remainder. But I still think you should go out of your way to fly BA on this route since it would be and easy PHX>LHR>BOM flight.

Given the way BA responded to their own alleged error I'd say that one should go out of their way to NOT fly BA. But that's just my opinion.

You're not going to get a discount for a 3 year old, either award or paid seat. As for which program is best to redeem from, the answer is whichever has inventory on the dates you want. CO and BA are the online one-stop options I can think of. Everything else is going to be a double connect.

BA in F using AS miles is surely the best deal out there.

dgwright99, which airline site should one use to look up mileage requirement and book flights?

which carriers????

BA, AA, DL, US, Alaska, CO

I was thinking the same with my 100K BA miles. Buy a Y fare or are there cheaper options.

I have a 3 y.o on his 1st transatlantic flight. So thinking about visiting my cousin in London @ the same time if the fare allows stopovers?

I would say that you are far more likely to find award availability with star alliance then you are with anybody else? The number of combinations to get t India on star is just way greater than anybody else. I would be looking for PHX-XXX-FRA-BOM but there are other routes too.
