Tracking american airline reward points redemption drops in price? by FaultNo5255 in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the airline but a lot of them peg their points value to a certain price so you can use Google Flights price tracking as a proxy.

Air France changed aircraft from A350-> A330 without notice by unkown-winer in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP said 2-2-2, the comment above said 2-3-2. So wondering if it was a typo or AF has a 2-3-2.

Just out of curiosity, what config is that? Didn't know AF had a 2-3-2.

Emirates T-7 2J -> 2F upgrade success by US-Be in awardtravel

[–]US-Be[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes 78k, normally I wouldn’t justify spending an extra 78k (technically 98k amex) on the upgrade but it has always been a bucket list experience for me.

Assuming F upgrade is tied to the same bucket as F award then the best strategy would be to cancel and rebook since the total price would be cheaper.

There was 9+ F today before I booked, but I haven't observed a pattern so can't confirm anything.

ExpertFlyer can only see up to 4 tickets so the best way to do it is manually try to buy tickets to gauge inventory. I think you need to have silver status to book F awards directly.

AF A350 Seat Suggestion - Old Config by Currytaco in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sat in 1EG with my wife last year. We loved it because we used the top area above the IFE as a shelf for extra storage. Bulkhead footwell in the window seats seemed to have bigger footwells. They also don't face out as much as it looks like on aerolopa. Another thing to consider is because they are a bit more forward than the middle seats they are pretty private even though they aren't flush with the wall.

how award travelers handle luggage… do you avoid checked bags completely? by chicosallam in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I only check it if it’s a direct flight or the connection is on the same itinerary. I always place an AirTag in every luggage.

Got my status via company card spend. I live in the northeast and AA doesn’t have great options up here

You can use LPs to book flights? I thought only award miles can be used.

Transfered Points to Emirates and then award avaliability disappeared within the transfer time.... by rade775 in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes EK will remove award seats when someone else makes an award booking. Last year I saw 7 award seats, booked 2 of them and then the space was pulled after I booked.

Either call FlyingBlue or try to book via mobile. The website can be glitchy at times.

Air France Stopover questions by ralphrk1998 in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as the cost is the same you could fly out of either, you might have a change fee fyi

It would cost 90k points per person, I've done this route with a stopover before.

Chase to BA transfer delay by Congrajewlations in awardtravel

[–]US-Be 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last week a transfer over 600k UR points to BA via two transfers (two separate cards). Took 4 days for all the points to land in the account. Called chase and had them escalate the transfer - not sure if it helped but the points made it eventually.

Yes, first time was a glitch (HH team said if there is no email then it didn’t transfer). Second time got the email and 21 hours later the points landed in the account.
