Hi guys,

ie : MAD-YVR the 5 october 2021 and YVR-MAD the 26 october for 1045€ in J.
ie : MAD-SFO the 12 october and retunr SFO-MAD the 25 october for 1205 € in J

great fare !exBCN is same price.
I booked for oct2021 BCN YVR 1044€ - 120xp - Class Z.
with AF/KL policies : flights cancelled = rebooked +/- 30j cabin to cabin / after that class-to-class.
You can choose any flights cancelled maybe (CDG AMS or BCN CDG)...
Happy holiday

I found availability on BCN-CDG-LHR-SFO with both ways LHR-SFO on VS metal. The whole thing can be ticketed on delta.com 006 stock with all AF flight numbers. This seems great at first but will actually not earn any Skymiles on the long flight because VS is not a SkyTeam airline: "Mileage credit is not applicable to a SkyTeam-marketed flight operated by another airline."

Some related threads from the DL forum:
Earn on VS-operated, AF/KL-marketed flights?
Skymiles earned on KLM marketed, Virgin Atlantic metal?
(but yes, this is only relevant if you intend to credit to DL)

Am I correct in thinking that UK citizens wont be able to make use of this route any time in the coming months?
If so, is there an alternative? I know the return can in some cases, include a layover in LHR, but getting to spain to begin is the issue.
Thanks!

How do you build that route? I was trying to work it out but not sure how to replicate it? Did you use the Matrix?

I haven't checked KL, but AF Z fare rule says non refundable, I can't find penalty amount for both cancellation and changes, so right now, I assume voluntary cancellations can only be converted to vouchers with limited expiry?
