KE awards now show on NWA site
Just noticed this today. Have to do each individual day, though, the calender function doesn not work.

actually the calender function does work, as long as you leave the non stop flight box unchecked.

wow- that is great, and from dates I'm looking at around Thanksgiving there is good ex-LAX and ex-SEA availability in business class.

This is great news, hopefully a feature that survives the 'merge'

I'm new to trying to use the award search and seem hopeless. I see where there is a list of online partners but don't see KE. I put in dummy dates and then hit the calendar function to see award lists. I don't see anything but NW flights. Someone please help me!
I am looking to go to BKK sometime in Feb. I should see KE flights.
Thanks to all!

For CZ, does that mean PEK-CAN flights will come up too?
By the way, KE intra asia flights are very expensive, at 50,000/70,000, not a good deal.

It's called married segment availability. In this instance KE is ready to offer award seats for aaa-bbb-ccc, but not aaa-bbb. It happens all the time.

Has anyone successfully found north america-Auckland with the KE availability? I haven't been able to pull it up anywhere.
I know that KE flies US-ICN-AKL.

While I still can't get a MSP-SYD on an award ticket, what is interesting is on paid tickets I now get options for SQ, JL and Quantas ex NRT. That I definitely wasn't getting when I was searching for SYD flights a couple weeks ago.

looks like a bunch of partners are available online. KE, CZ, Air Europa, Kenya, Copa, KingFisher, Hawaiian.
wonder how many of these partners will survive the merge and continue partnerships with delta. (The non-skyteam ones i mean)
EDIT: All of them work but only to a certain degree probably working out the kinks.
I think this is one of the best sites in terms of booking award travel. 100 times better than .bomb (UAL) award site.
