MSP to Bali

I'm looking for help on best way to fly from MSP to Bali (DPS).
As I am platinum on Delta - ideally i would fly them to earn miles and use miles for my friend. Any help would be appreciated. Very complicated.

Welcome to Flyertalk. As a Delta Platinum in MSP, why don't you call Delta Vacations? They did a great job as NWA worldvacations in the past.

Welcome to FT! If you could give us a little more info as to why your trip will be "very complicated" we could better help you. And in the process maybe help others with similar questions.

I think this is the best option if you interested in earning. Now that Delta has slashed earnings on most Asian carriers discount tickets, they make little sense.
KL has real cheap SIN-DPS fares.

Hi. I know MSP and DL (KLM/AF) routes really well.

How can I help? Are you looking for one paid ticket and one miles ticket?

How many miles do you have to work with? Coach or business?

Thanks

Also, you do you know when you want to go? Has DL Plat. line provided any help?

KE... = skyteam = DL
via ICN
(has ~6 US gateways, incl at least some with at least reasonable if not good schedules)
(could also combine DL with KE for schedule) (if you can get DL with flatbed, if youre doing J)
