35,000 Voyager Miles - spending on Star Alliance Partners?
Hello All,
I am very confused by the rules (and prices) for using SAA Voyager miles on Star Alliance partners. I have 35,000 miles I need to use up ASAP as they are going to expire in 5 days. I have priced up a one-way Business Class redemption from TUN>FRA>LAD with LH. On the Lufthansa Miles & More site, this comes out at 35,000 miles.
Does this mean I can book it using my 35,000 SAA Voyager miles? Or should I be pricing up using the "STAR ALLIANCE AWARD CHART" here: https://www.flysaa.com/bw/en/voyager...rAlliance.html? This comes out as EUROPE to AFRICA and costs 207 300 miles(!) A significant difference!
Is it even possible to book a one-way redemption on a Star Alliance partner airline using SAA Voyager miles?
Thanks!
